   Baz, you crack me up with that comment!  I was totally thinking of the same thing.  Let's not start that mess again we just had a few weeks ago.  Congrats on the car, enjoy it, and thanks for rubbing in in our slug faces.

	Forget Horner Rd, use Potomac Mills!

	yes, that's what most human activity is about. sorry if that offends you! I didn't realize I was dealing with a bunch of self-less saints! You certainly won't do what's in YOUR interests, will you? Boy the "holier than thou" attitudes are RAMPANT today! I guess I was just saying "ciao" with the post. I got frustrated with the 234 lot situation and I'm voting with my feet! Yes, I AM part of the solution - one more slug can park and ride since I won't be there. And unlike many of you, I will be getting 50 mpg instead of polluting the atmosphere with an SUV getting 12. The Commonwealth of Virginia agrees. CIAO!

	Qorc, you know what they say: If you're not part of the solution.... Why, by the way, would you post here in the first place? You're telling us that you're going over to the other side (and by other side I mean single drivers, NOT Hybrids, for I HAVE seen Hybrids - admittedly a small few - in slug lines). What use does that have? This site is about making things better for as many people as possible and all you're doing is adding another car to the road. Oh, wait, I forgot. Your commute gets better. I guess that's what it's all about. Me, me, me.....

	yes, that's what HOV stands for but the Commonwealth of Virginia has decided to also reward people who are driving in FUEL EFFICIENT cars along side of the belching, gas-guzzling SUVs that a lot of slug drivers bring. It's called having two goals. if you don't like it, write the governor. But I didn't drop $24K into a new automobile so that I could double my commute by picking up stray slugs! laughs As if!!! I slugged for 2 years. I will still slug some. I occasionally drove. I did my time. The system isn't working down at my lot. Like I said, in 2 years, i have NEVER seen a hybrid pick up slugs at my lot. Not even once. Why should they? You get a bunch of strangers in and out of your vehicle and it takes longer. Does that make sense to you? REALLY? So YOU would be that one "whore with a heart of gold" that would invest money in a hybrid and still pick up slugs? Yeah, right! I'll excuse you while you adjust your halo!

	I'm with you, buddy. If I had $25,000 (spread over 60-84 months), I'd be driving right along side you too. My neighbor just bought a new Prius (she's a stay out home mom) and it is one cool car! In fact it is such a cool car, that being able to drive in HOV would be just a bonus for me (driving a super technologically advanced, environmentally friendly car is the primary benefit).

	HOV... isn't that the acronym for HIGH OCCUPANCY VEHICLE? A hybrid vehicle with only one occupant traveling in those lanes during the restricted hours becomes an oxymoron. Pollution reduction is merely a benefit of HOV, not the purpose of HOV.
