MPG Illusion

After watching this 4 minute video, you'll never look at MPG math the same way.

Turns out we should use GPM instead of MPG. Confused? You wont be after these fine folks from Duke are through with you.

I showed this to my friend the eminent health economist, and he thoroughly approved. It's so simple, yet, on some levels, a fairly radical re-thinking. I was heartened, because it seems like the most good can be done by small improvements in vehicles that get bad milage...a goal that seems easier to achieve than coaxing another mpg or two out of a Prius.
