Monolithic Oil?

Mr. T. Cox reminds me of one of those spoof ads that would appear occasionally on Saturday Night Live a long time ago for "Monolithic Oil." It went something like:

"When you're driving, remember to keep a steady, even speed at all times. Don't speed up or slow down abruptly, for anything. The cost in property damage and human life will be more than made up for in improved fuel efficiency! This message has been brought to you by Monolithic Oil. Remember, at Monolithic Oil, we want YOU ... (pregnant pause) to PAY."

Having said that, I'd still like to put a plug in for cyclists exercising the maximum caution and attention near right turns and exits. Ideally, avoid passing through the "suicide slot" altogether! (See http://tinyurl.com/32lj22 for more info). Merge carefully into the through traffic lane instead.
