		The hamsters won't be laughing.  They will be too tired running their little legs off to power your SUV.  (:

		If you make your smiley go the other (more normal) way, it turns into a nice little icon, like this       .

		It is interesting to note that, whatever the science behind the "abolish-the-SUV-and-the-rest-of-mankind" movement, the facts don't seem to bother its loudest supporters. Take the actress who's putting out the latest "SUVs are evil" commercials. She's having to do quite a bit of backtracking in order to reconcile her viewpoint with the fact that she drives...an SUV.

		Yes, it is true that fanatical people of all types ignore facts that don't fit with their message.

		Remember, about a year ago, there was all this excitement about a new scooter invention called "IT" or "Ginger" or something like that?  It was supposed to revolutionize transportation, because many people would be able to switch to using these low-cost, low-pollution scooters instead of cars, and it will be efficient and environmentally friendly and so on.  Have you heard anything about that recently?

		Ironically, some California towns are considering banning Segways as a safety hazard to other pedestrians.
