Tom, I already told you that I have been using CFL lights for a couple of years now. I don't know which wacko liberals you are talking about, but it's not me.

No, I'm not against Honda's hybrid. I am in favor of hybrid technology for all vehicles. Why not be? They'll get almost twice the mileage and have better performance than a conventional auto. That is the fastest way to get off of the need for foreign oil. The added cost will disappear with mass production because a smaller engine can be used and some components can be eliminated. Eventually drive and brake by wire and wheel motors will eliminate the need for steering columns, hydraulic brake lines and cylinders, transmissions and drive shafts. Belts will disappear. Why wouldn't I want that?
