The gas tax ISN'T regressive - poor people DO drive a hell of a lot less than your typical exurbanite, and they get better mileage when they DO drive. Don't buy this hype - it's being fed to you by the people who most stand to benefit - the SUV lovers.

I tried, many times, with the account 'm1ek', to use the "Lost password" feature. It generated a temporary password, which I attempted to use to log in, and it never worked.

Don't assume malice. It doesn't help your cause. I had to create this second account just to be able to post this.
