Default Please removed Unneeded items form your trunk!

The CA Air Resources Board is suffering from a lack of oxygen to the brain.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Tire-i...-14760248.html

"The state Air Resources Board on Thursday adopted a resolution requiring auto repair shops to check tire pressure every time drivers bring in their vehicle for maintenance, oil changes and smog tests. The next step is to develop detailed rules to implement the mandate, which will take effect in July 2010."

This one is so lame I laughed out loud when I read it.

"The U.S. Department of Energy estimated at the time that proper tire inflation can boost gas mileage by about 3.3 percent. It recommends the step along with regular tuneups, replacing dirty air filters and removing unneeded items from the trunk."

The action taken Thursday is one of nine early steps California is taking under a 2006 law requiring the state to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by a third -- or to 1990 levels -- by 2020."
