In California there is an ever increasing number of gas-electric hybrid cars. Many of them have a bumper sticker with a large American flag and the words:

Hey Saudis; how do you like my hybrid?

I would really like to make a bumper sticker with a large Saudi flag and the words:

Just fine. You're still dependent on oil, and we set the price.

Perhaps some day we'll kick the oil habit, but hybrids are just a very small step; nothing worth getting cocky over.
