It Ain't the Meat, It's the Motion

Although they make for tempting targets, I won't write about gas prices, ethanol subsidies or drivers of black SUVs. Instead, I'll confess that the inflated cost of a tank of gas has yet to significantly alter my driving habits. It's not that I hate the planet or my wallet. The instantaneous change of scenery afforded by a car is my favorite luxury. Knowing that entirely different vantage points are never more than fifteen minutes away is enormously reassuring.
