"300 miles is about only around 4 hours of my actual driving time @ 75 to 80 mph using my trusty radar/laser combo detector plus my sprayed license plates to defeat those new nasty remote photo picture gadgets. Come on AL Gore wastes more energy offset carbon credits than that drive running his lights for a week in his home,"I'm happy you've found ways to use technology to reduce the likelihood that you'll be caught by the police when doing whatever you want instead of driving responsibly. However, you'll use even more gas driving 80 mph, and the cost of gas is not the majority of the cost of driving a car. And frankly, what Al Gore does or doesn't do simply isn't relevant to what you do or I do. Al Gore's life choices might influence whether I would vote for him or not, but *my* life choices are based on my values, not Al Gore's. Too many (as in way too many) people have abandoned personal values as their guide through life and replaced them with "can I get away with it?" and "everybody else does it" without regard to how their actions affect others. From a human perspective, this is not very admirable. So you keep thwarting the police and burning gas driving all over the country to pick up audio gear, and I'll keep considering how my actions affect others. ;-)
