im verry surprised at this. but verry pleased
I guess with the current price of gas they finally saw the light and the cost savings of hybrid motors (electric/diesl combo)
I'm SURE they didnt do it out of the kindness of their hearts and concern for the environment.
will cut emissions by 50-75% from their vehicles
lets hope USPS follows suit

Before you vote to stop drilling in ANWR, you should research the subject thoroughly...the 'paradise' you want to defend doesn't exist, the caribou actually thrive in the other drilled area, the area needed (because of new technology) is less than one percent pf the area of ANWR, AND current laws will not allow the drillers to do anything to harm the environment even there.
Anyone who actually believes the CRAP they hear about environmental stuff on tv ahould do some research and discover just how many lives have been lost (including the latest shuttle crew) because of 'environmental concerns'. Remember the wildfires a couple of years ago? 5 firefighters died because helicopters weren't allowed to pick up water from a nearby river. The shuttle Columbia's wing was damaged by foam that came off the main fuel tank. This problem had never happened until 'environmental concerns' forced the manufacturer to change the method of applying the foam...after that, foam breaking off became commonplace.
Your research should also include the sources of financing for the various environmental groups...you will find that very interesting.
OK, now I've proven that Houston still exists. And they just said that the foam was what destroyed the shuttle (but in typical Big Media fashion, the left out their earlier statements about the reason for the foam breaking off).

Buzzards Bay is one of the state's best shellfishing areas, producing quahogs, soft-shell clams, scallops and oysters. It is west of Cape Cod in southeastern Massachusetts.
