*BUT* ... that 150lb person could eat a T-bone steak while he was
driving his two-ton gas-guzzling SUV to work.  *AND* he pays a bit less
for gas.

I think there's been a US vs EU thread before, but I'll say that there
are plenty of reasons not to live anywhere.  So quit griping :)

As a side note, I've seen the Ford Excursion (seats 18?) maybe 5-6 times
since they came out; however, I've never seen one with more than 2
people in it ... usually only one person.  What does that say?  No wait,
don't tell me, I don't want to know :)
