That's good Paul..

As for me it's more about principle and honesty than the price, which is in the park with what you're eluding to.
If it costs that much, then that's what it costs... but, don't take advantage of a situation with some oscure reasoning to rip me off.
It's going to be up to the consumer to get this under control and that will happen when America finally realizes that they cannot continue to waste resources on a daily basis. In case anyone does not realize it yet, Congress is not your friend. In fact, all we do is bother them and get in their way.
The EPA is just another bureaucratic jungle, funded by taxpayer dollars that costs us way too much to operate and we get nothing in return except more idiotic regulations that accomplish nothing. (i.e. I see highways that have massive amounts of gasoline, diesel, motor oil, power steering fluid, etc, etc. dumped on them every day - then wahed off to the side by rain - and we still have to send out state mowing crews to cut the darn grass!!)
We've already allowed too much control over our lives to be taken by the goverment. That came from people asking, well, when is the govenment going to do something about this... instead of pulling on their own boots and getting their hands dirty. Govenment is supposed to fix anything and everything - that will never happen, nor will it work. This whole enviromental thing is way out of hand, which is evident when someone (seriously) talks about the polution that's generated from cow farts.
