Nine Inches of Global Warming

 
In the brutal, snowy commute to work this morning, I passed a car that was struggling along in the slow lane. It was a sight I'd never seen before, over many years of harsh winter driving.

It was a new Maserati Quattroporte (MSRP approximately $120,000.00) slogging along on an slick, unplowed Interstate.

Here's my guess: this dude is a believer in global warming and, rather than buying a second vehicle (say, a Jeep Wrangler), he decided to buy carbon offsets instead.
