I have often thought that if Americans were asked to drive one day less, that they would do it if asked. That would probably involve carpooling with other people, carpooling kids, picking up an item for a neighbor from the store. I think if we could do that, that we would be sending a message that we don't want to be this dependent on oil. In the 70's I think that people were asked to cut back. I know that the gas was being rationed.
