    I suspect it would have been a different movie if Spielberg decided to use a Prius in Duel. Might have turned into a Wile. E. Coyote vs. Road Runner sort of a theme.

    (When you first said Dennis Weaver, I heard that familiar "McCLOUD!" yell from the Chief through my head...)

    If you consider Congresspeople celebs:

    Talking the Talk, Driving the Drive
    With Congress mulling the massive energy bill, we went to the Alliance to Save Energy with a question. House and Senate members talk a lot about saving energy, but do any drive a gas-sipping hybrid? Yes. Fifteen do, to be exact: eight Democrats, six Republicans, and one independent. "I get 32, 33, sometimes 34 miles per gallon," Rep. Jeb Bradley, a New Hampshire Republican, tells us about his Ford Escape Hybrid. "I'm really stoked about that." California Sen. Barbara Boxer has two Toyota Priuses--one in Washington and one at home. So do Rhode Island Sen. Lincoln Chafee and California Rep. Darrell Issa. Indiana Sen. Richard Lugar just got his Prius after being on the waiting list for months. And Maryland Rep. Roscoe Bartlett, who has 80,000 miles on his Prius, is getting another. "It's the only time he ever bought a new car," says a spokeswoman.

    Hybrid-driving members of Congress:
    Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) – Prius
    Sen. Robert Bennett (R-UT) – Ford Hybrid Escape
    Sen. Richard Lugar (R-IN) – Prius
    Sen. Lincoln Chafee (R-RI) – Prius
    Sen. James Jeffords (I-VT) – Ford Hybrid Escape
    Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI) – Ford Hybrid Escape
    Sen. Richard Durbin (D-IL) – Ford Hybrid Escape
    Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) – Ford Hybrid Escape on order

    Rep. Roscoe Bartlett (R-MD) – Prius
    Rep. Michael Honda (D-CA) – Prius
    Rep. Tom Allen (D-ME) – Prius
    Rep. Brian Baird (D-WA) – Prius
    Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) – Prius
    Rep. Mike Doyle (D-PA) – Ford Hybrid Escape
    Rep. Jeb Bradley (R-NH) – Ford Hybrid Escape

    Ed Begley, Jr., who was on St. Elsewhere (tall Blond with glasses) personally drove his cross-country with scheduled stops in some cities to promote the car. Not paid by Toyota; his idea.

    Ok, I know she's not a real person, but neither is Brian from Famlily Guy. In the last episode of Six Feet Under, Claire Fisher drives a Prius.

    I have newfound respect for Ed Begley Jr.

    Last year we saw Kirsten Dunst picking one up from the valet down on Melrose. Not sure if she owned it, but she sure drove it...
