Love This Newspaper Columnist
I tried to go to the Everett Herald to post a link to today's Road Test written by Mary Lowry, but couldn't find it online. Every week they drive and profile a different car. They have two writers who do this, Mary Lowry and Larry Lark. Mary usually gets to drive the cooler cars. Any way there was one paragraph I really like and so I will quote her here.
"I feel very strongly that we have to drastically reduce gasoline consumption in this country, and I have the perfect plan for how to do it. Everyone who doesn't care about horsepower, torque, handling, thrilling acceleration and the sensation of speed would have to use public transportation - which would be mandated to use only Earth-friendly fuels. This wouldn't just save us billions of barrels of oil and eliminate untold amounts of harmful emissions, it would also have the added benefit of clearing the highways for those of us who love to drive and want to do it in high-performance vehicles."

What a great job to have. Every other week, I think, she drives a different car and then writes about it. This week she reviewed the Chrysler 300C SRT8.
6.1 liter Hemi V8, 20 inch wheels, and 13 stereo speakers. Only $47,455. How about it Mark?
Nah, it looks a little boxy. Guess I'll stick with what I have....................for now.

She is listed at the bottom of that page. I emailed her this morning about her article and she answered me before 1:30. She sounds like someone I would like to meet.
