One very important and COOL note....the money goes to victims of car accidents. I like that very much.

I agree TAG with the part about the car accident victims, but........I hope everyone is aware of how multi-part distribution works.

You know, someone has a product, he sells it to a distribution network, etc, and then the consumers get it. Well, there's your OIL owner right there......remember this the next time you fill up. Ultimately, that's where the money goes back to. Friggin' vanity plates........

I know, we all spend money on what we want, but that's almost as bad as the indoor ice rink and ski slope or the completely chrome car one of these OIL sheiks has spent OUR money on.

C'mon GM........keep those GREEN cars coming......I love my V-8, but I'm tired of seeing stuff like this and reading about Exxon and the other gas company profits while they screw the average working guy that keeps this country going.

Sorry for the rant and soapbox speech.......
