From the article:

"Do you save more gasoline by going from 10 to 20 mpg, or going from 33 to 50 mpg?"

Most drivers, [the greenie weenies claim], would pick the second option.

They fail to credit their colleagues in public education for such crashing innumeracy.

Of course, maybe there's a reason pilots use gallons per hour and not hours or miles per gallon. Perhaps it has to do with the relative inconvenience of running out.

It’s just a ratio. Seriously, is it that hard to figure out?
