Doug #1, NO WAY! They can pry the keys from my cold, dead fingers. I'll ante up to the tax reaper when he comes knocking on the door. I just hope he brings a bar of soap.

Much of what I hear these days politically is speculative, with everyone claiming to be "in the know".

I'm interested in the Dragnet perspective: "Just the facts, ma'am. Just the facts."

Doug #2,

I could point you to a dozen ways to work Google ("carbon management", "carbon footprint", "carbon software", "cap and trade legislation", "carbon monitoriing"), or point you to the actual Congressional record (which also has a search feature...Did you know that the House and Senate have 17 active bills being debated for just identity theft alone?!? Did you?). But I think you can handle that on your own (you can handle a race car at speed...this should be easy stuff). Here's a snip-it from the UK, and they are already there and we're right on their heels:

Stop for a moment and think about this one statement: Do you really think I would work for a publicly traded company (Fortune 300) that is prepared to invest MILLIONS in this software if it weren't true?!? And then share the potential fallout to the Cobra community just for freakin' grins?!? Come on, give me a break. I'm much better than that and most users here would agree.

Welcome to the 21st century, the new world order. Drive your Cobras like you stole them and keep burning that $3/gallon crude. The party won't be lasting a whole lot longer. I'd love to hear some of the Aussie and UK guys chime in, too. They get it (case in point...they are all installing GM LS1/2/3/6/7 motors in their replicas for a reason).
