The war is not over because now the Iraqi's are fighting back. But the motive of the war was anything but WMD's. Saddam had to be removed because he wanted to protect oil prices. And.....oh forget it keep this thread to the topic.

Do you even know what the US are upto? For your information, the major oil producers i.e Saudi, Kuwait, UAE, Oman etc....are all US war allies. Saddam invaded Kuwait because they were screwing the oil monopoly the middle east had.

It's interesting that the people in America are whining and bleating about petrol (gas) prices as they fill up their SUV's to take the kids to footy practice or go to the shops.

Their namby pamby 2 dollars or so a gallon - I spit on their misfortune and laugh as they all think about buying Toyotas.

Our price of fuel in the UK is three times what they play in the USA - so don't come crying to me for sympathy.

Alos means that someone does a heck of a lot of miles a day (300+ ?)

US cars are like a Jaguar in their fuel consumption so you probably need to fill up once a day for the trip to the supermarket.

Nothing wrong with the American gas guzzlers... Or Toyota land cruisers... At least they dont look like minging bubbles of ****... (the new Mini being an example)

Anyway, my college is like 50km, and need to go by the Western Railways daily. A pain really...

You should ride, if you ride at 30km inside an hour, you should get there in less then 2 hours.

Do it regularly and you can become the Indian version of Lance Armstrong or Jan Ullrich.

Yes, we had this 15-seater bus earlier. Used to take 1.25 hours instead of the now 2. But not enough students willing to commute, so most of them have rented rooms there.

I agree - they would make wonderful artificial reefs
