    It looks like the Dallas Morning News is a bit enamored by the Prius. First this article:

    Now this one that I think is a bit tongue in cheek.

    Frequently Asked Questions About the Toyota Prius
    ....
    ...The electric motor in the Prius is entirely self-sustaining. It runs on Toyota’s patented “Smug Superiority Aura Drive,†which gathers energy from the Prius driver himself as he silently pities the other drivers on the road for piloting vehicles that get less than 50 miles to the gallon.......

    But I do think that the DMN is showing signs of the enthusiasm of a recovering neocon.

    That FAQ's hilarious.

    But we've known for a long time about the smug self-righteousness that comes standard.

    Sorry about that. And I can't even use the excuse that it was late and I was really tired.
