    When Clinton and McCain proposed cutting gas taxes, I asked my environmental economics students, "So how much do you think drivers will save?" The students diligently Googled the numbers.

I asked. "Oh!!! Forgot about that!"

    On Wednesday morning, while walking near my home, I yelled, "Hi" to a neighbor. "Got a new car?" I said, eyeing a sleek little black sedan in his driveway. "Yeah," he said effusively.
