Is it just me, or should all of the "it's all about the oil, it's always been all about the oil" people do one of two things:

1. Stop driving your oil-burning cars and/or trucks altogether. Do not ride any oil burning public transportation. Do not fly in an oil-burning plane. Do not use an oil-burning heater. Do not use any plastics or rubber or any other petroleum-based product.

.........OR...........

2. Shut up. It's getting REALLY tiresome.

If you want to keep chanting that ridiculous mantra, then put your money where your mouth is, fellas. Buy a really nice bicycle, and start pedalling.

Oh, wait....you can't do that either....the tires are made with oil....the vinyl seat is made with oil.....the plastic grips are made with oil....the rubber brake pads are made with oil......the chain is lubricated with oil.....

I guess you're walkin'. OH, and be sure not to buy shoes with rubber soles! The oil, ya' know....

Mike
