RE: RE: [privacy] Gas prices and car driving

I think alternative fuels, like Hydrogen perhaps, is the certain answer.  AS LONG as it's not a petroleum byproduct.

  If I could, I'd switch my Impala over to Hydrogen power just to stick it to the oil companies.... Even if it still 
cost me the equivalent of $3.25 a gallon of gas, I'd switch over....  Heck I'd even make my own hydrogen just to stick 
it to them, um, maybe...(I'm not using recycled cooking oil yet, so maybe there is a limit of how far I'll go....)

There is ajournalist here in San Jose, that has been publishing his
'adventures' with HIS Prius...  He claims that he is getting 52+ mpg.
Others claim 55+...

I've read that there are some sfotware 'hacks' that raise the mileage
to 100mpg...  Of course, that plays havoc with your warranty...

I am perfectly capable of learning from my mistakes.  I will surely
learn a great deal today.
