You know, I was going to go on about the fluids thing, but I decided the entry was more poignant, so to speak, leaving it at that.

You would think fluids just exacerbate the problem though. I guess when the alternative is dehydration though, the lesser of two evils concept applies.

As far as car buying goes, if you accept that you're probably not going to get the best deal out there and, invariably, whoever sells you the car is going to rip you off a little bit, then it's only... pretty miserable.

Maybe you could wait a couple years (obviously not) and purchase one of those air-powered cars when they become available in the States (of dubious likelihood knowing the oil companies entrenched opposition to things that don't use... oil).
