highway obstruction

May 17th, 2008 critical thinking, economics, peak oil

Driving 65 mph on I-287 and north on I-87, my gas mileage increased 12% over my usual when averaging 73-75 mph. Of course, I was a highway obstruction at that speed.

While truckers (and many others) complain about the high cost of fuel, there sure were a lot of them passing me.

Collectively, we’re really pretty stupid.  So what’s your excuse?
