[ale] Ot: Geek Squad

[Matt Magee]

I still find it interesting that in the early 90's you could buy at 
least three cars that acheived around 60 mpg (Civic VX, CRX HF and the 
Metro XFI).  Now to get 60 mpg, the best we can get is the smart, which 
is far smaller and not really inexpensive either.

Is this the best the world's engineers can do?
