'Baghdad residents line up to get fuel, currently limited to 30 litres (8 gallons) per person twice a week.'
I wish in no way to minimise the hardships the people of that poor blighted country are suffering, or try to make a sensible comparison between the realities of work and social travel between various countries' transport systems, but if this was a rationing, 60 litres a week per person seemed quite a lot.
And puts 'normal' consumption, and hence emissions, around the world in rather frightening consequence.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
