So how do some of you ride with Hummers,trucks,vans,cellphone talkers,stop lights,stop signs,pedestrians,smog,wind,bugs,airplains and blimps{they must bother you**? How do you do it? Full body armor and blinders?
Ban all private autos? A single commercial trans atlantic jet liner burns more fuel on TAKEOFF than that hummer will burn all friggin year. Should we ban all flights next? Keep in mind that 3000 planes take off every day in NYC/NJ alone. How bout electricity? How much coal is burned to produce that? quite a lot, Shall we ban the lights too?

I think we should definitely find cleaner, more efficient ways of doing all those things too. It would be nice if this planet were still habitable in a hundred years, wouldn't it?
I guess we should start by always pointing and laughing whenever we see one of these ridiculous Humvees. Other than the ones being used as forest-fire trucks and MTB sweep vehicles, let's recycle them all. They're war machines, for crying out loud, not street vehicles.
Those who feel a need to drive them should look into penile enhancement instead.
