I find odd that terrorist organizations such as Greenpeace continue to be coddled by their sympathizers with such kindly words as 'protesters' and 'infiltrate.' What GP did is illegally enter a privately owned business and interfere with their operations. By the vast majority of legal standards, this behavior would land these extremist anarchists in prison. Only in the reality-impaired world of a leftist GP radical would this behavior be condoned, indeed, even promoted and encouraged. Perhaps if these radicals spent more time worrying about the poor and less time worrying about liberating cute furry little animals then maybe they would really make a difference in this world.75.31.132.96 08:20, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Third paragraph issues
The third paragraph regarding fuel economy/environmental issues with vehicles such as this is relevant, but poorly written. I've inserted a citation needed for the race track/8 mpg sentence, however should the source reveal that this "test" was not done in the same manner as the U.S. EPA mileage figures that are also quoted, then this must be explained. I think that the addition of the last sentence in the paragraph was an attempt to do just that, however this sentence itself is misleading, bordering on incorrect (by omission of relevant background knowledge). I have not edited it, since the entire point of the vehicle's relatively low fuel economy should be rewritten, imo. The problem that I have with the last sentence is that should a vehicle be driven at speeds which one normally drives on a race track, then the fuel economy would be lower as is stated, but not explained. However, if a vehicle was driven in accordance with the driving pattern specified and standardized by the U.S. EPA on the same race track (to avoid traffic disruptions of the driving pattern), then the expected mileage should actually be close to the published figures.
