that would possibly allow the above "comparison" to have some relevance...

unless of course the point of the "comparison" was that people shouldn't be travelling from new york to la.
Mavdog, come on... the point is total emissions over a given period of time. 10 in a year, versus 31 in one trip.

How far is it from NY to LA? 3000 miles? Most people are gonna be driving between 6-8 times that far in their personal vehicle each year.
