Juxtaposition

On the one hand, a row of unsold gas-guzzling behemoths, from One Giant Metaphor, reporting on a "Hummer dealer... in a panic.... year-to-year sales down about 50%,"

Unsold Hummers

On the other hand, a photograph that I took in Hyderabad a couple of weeks ago, of a family of five on a motor scooter:

[N.b. I've grabbed a copy of the Hummer pic because linking to the original was unreliable. Hope that's OK.]

IMHO, Hummers should be made illegal domestically. Send them to where they are unfortunately needed... Iraq and Afganistan and Paris :-(
