    A co-worker who also has a Prius looked downcast the other day at the vanpool park-and-ride.

    "We're not unique any more," he said.

    Ah, well. C'est la vie. Our loss of uniqueness is many others (and the environment's) gain.

    Will that be split between the Prius, Highlander, Campry and Lexus? That's about 125,000 each.

    I'd sure like to see them speed up their conversion timetable and offer hybrid versions of ALL of their cars before their 2010 target date.
