I don't think it's odd to show a car at a book store if your target market is people who can read.

I just can't resist responding to these 3 writers. Tried to email Forbes editors without success. Please excuse my "preaching to the choir."

"Open your collective minds! Our major auto arteries in and out of our cities are rapidly reaching gridlock, as are our inner cities. Smaller does help. 40-60 mpg is far better than 15-25. Hybrids have batteries of finite lifetime, soon to become major landfill headaches. My road bicycle rides with me in my smart with no problem and it's much larger than the morning mail. If I need a larger vehicle, I can rent it.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. All 34,000 of us open minded beholders."

So much for my preaching....thank you for your patience

Oh, how embarrassing to have Ben live in my city. At least we got rid of Bush, although the solution to that one turned out to be not so great.

When I get mine, I think I'll drive it to Ben's office and offer him a ride.
