I hope they don't pass a law about flatulence. Flatulence saves lives too. Just try to hold one in.We made one of Racheal Ray's whole wheat pasta dishes with shallots last night. I'm suffering this morning. All this time, there's been all these noise ordinances because of motorcycles and now someone is raising a fuss about quiet hybrids? Really now. How many blind or partially-sighted people are going to be crossing the street and just happen to be near a hybrid in this country? To me, it sounds like a person has a better chance of being struck by lightning than being run down by a "quiet" vehicle.
