A couple of years ago, after I got my Prius, I was sharing my experiences with the locals in a Huntsville USENET forum. Many parroted the usual hybrid skeptic nonsense, which I replied with source cited facts and data. One even posted he was glad I was saving gas since it left that much more for his gas guzzler. I replied,'Good, then we are both happy.' ... Somehow I don't think he was really happy.
