Hybridity

[bcholmes]

I was reading an article this morning about hybrid cars. The new Toyota Prius is even better than the first generation. I'm really fond of my Prius, and I'm glad that it's continuing to be viable for Toyota.

One of the people I work with at the customer site asked me whether I really believed that the amount of money I was saving on gas made up for the price difference in the Prius. This is pretty darn typical of him. Always interested in his personal costs versus his personal rewards. He seemed taken aback when I said that saving money didn't factor into my thinking at all.

yeah, saving money on gas didn't figure for me, either.

the so cool i could just fall over and die factor did, though. coolness while being environmentally conscious equals double bonus coolness points.
