Good idea. I have no idea why so many are complaining. We have been warned for years about what is going on today. Some of us prepared, most thought we were crazy people. Well, maybe not TOO CRAZY now. I wish gas would hurry up & get to $5 or $6/gal the roadways will not be so crowded.

If you used that gas the roads might be less crowded too and it is FREE!!
That is the idea behind raising the fuel prices exactly since the roads we have can
NOT handle the growth rate that we have been having and the amount of cars that
are added to the roads are climbing and climbing and the government cannot keep up
with building roads let alone keeping our bridges in good condition!! Pretty soon you
won't find any two lane roads except maybe your street your house is on. They can
either build double decker roads everywhere since many places don't have the room
to add 2,3,4,5 extra lanes width ways, The only other choices are UP or to raise the
gas prices so many folks have no choice but to car pool, ride buses, commuter train
and basically stay off the antiquated roadways.

I remember reading someplace that cow flatulence is a major contributor to pollution. If this is true, I say we harness all that gas and put it to good use. Put all those cows in a big room and feed 'em kidney beans and cabbage. A giant suction fan at one end of the room then forces the resultant gas into a giant pipe that goes to a distribution center and...well, you get the idea. We can put a man on the moon, but we're letting all the cow gas go to waste! It's just not fair!
