I was watching the news, when a banner ran across the screen indicating Senator Warner from VA., will be sponsoring a bill to reinstitute the national speed limit of 55 mph to save gas!

I did not realize we had a shortage...in any event if you, like me, think this is a bad idea, write your Senator ASAP, and voice your opinion.

If people want to save gas, let them slow down as some folks out here in "fly over country" are already doing. Otherwise leave it alone. We all know 55 is nothing more then a revenue generator.

MOD: I posted this in the Politics thread also, but wanted to get the information out to people who may not read Politics. If this is the wrong area, please move or delete. Thanks.
