when the population can't afford cars that run solely on unleaded fuel, that doesn't leave a lot of options, y'know?
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
You must be eliminated.

Actual dialog from movie:
Optimus Prime: "I need more power for my fight with Megatron."
Sam Witwicky: "Here, have a glass of gasoline, it makes humans as powerful as robots"
Optimus Prime: "Were you drinking gasoline just now?"
Sam Witwicky: "Yes, I always carry gasoline with me. It is perfectly safe for humans which is a big secret the adults don't want to tell you about"
Opitmus Prime: "Thank you, Sam"
(Sam and Optimus begin drinking from a fuel tank)
Sam Witwicky: (wiping lips with his sleeve) "Gasoline is the most refreshing drink. It is ten times better than even Kool Aide and perfectly safe for humans to drink. Now I can help you fight Megatron" (Sam flies into the air, leaving Optimus Prime behind)
Optimus Prime: "It is a mystery why more humans do not drink gasoline"
HONG KONG— The shades of the ancestors of action hero Jackie Chan were posthumously disgraced upon seeing a "blooper reel" at the end of Rush Hour 2. "I die a thousand deaths when my dishonorable progeny fails to remember his line," said the ghost of Chan Kim-Yiang, who died fighting against the British occupation of Hong Kong in 1840. "To see him flip off a restaurant table, only to land wrong and bonk his head, brings dishonor to all the Chans who have passed from this world into the realm of wind and ghosts."
The number of knife deaths in areas targeted by an anti-knife crime scheme has risen, the Home Office has said.
The government's Tackling Knives Action Programme started last July in 10 police areas in England and Wales.
In its first nine months, 126 people died after being attacked with a knife or other sharp object - seven more than in the same period the previous year.
Overall knife-related violence fell by 10%, but the number of deaths among teenagers remains unchanged.
The Home Office-led Tackling Knives Action Programme (TKAP) was triggered by a series of high-profile teenage stabbings.
Police have stepped up searches and patrols in knife crime hotspots and are running courses to highlight the dangers of carrying the weapons.
A second phase of the scheme, focusing on all forms of serious violence among 13 to 24-year-olds, will now be rolled out. About £5m will be made available to the 10 original forces and six others.
Warwickshire Chief Constable Keith Bristow, who leads TKAP, said "public angst" over knife crime was understandable but added that there were some "promising signs" in the reduction of killings among youngsters.
He said: "It's a mixed picture in the sense that in some places there have been some increases but overall it's going in the right direction.
"This is a long journey. Success when you're dealing with these sort of problems might be measured in generations, not weeks or months."
The figures also showed the number of offenders aged 19 and under possessing an offensive weapon fell 13% despite an increase in stop and search measures in all 10 police force areas.
Robberies with sharp instruments against those aged 19 and under also fell by 13%. According to provisional figures knife-related hospital admissions fell 32%, compared with 18% in non-TKAP areas.

And the length of court sentences increased for people caught in possession of knives or offensive weapons in England and Wales. However, a significant number are still being cautioned.
The families of some of those killed were invited to 10 Downing Street on Monday for a knife crime summit hosted by Prime Minister Gordon Brown and Home Secretary Alan Johnson.
Mr Johnson told the BBC it was important the overall number of stabbings had decreased.
He said: "The fact that a stabbing leads to the tragedy of a death is nothing to do with the perpetrator of the stabbing, its to do with how quickly the health service got to them, etc.
"The number of stabbings being down overall is encouraging and that's what we're looking for at this stage just one year in.
"We're not saying this programme's completed. We're saying there's a long way to go yet but there are encouraging signs."
Justice Secretary Jack Straw said tougher penalties had been introduced for knife crime and it had been made clear anyone aged 16 or over should be prosecuted for a first offence.
"This tough stance is already having a positive impact - latest figures show that more people are going to jail, and for longer, when caught carrying a knife," he said.
TKAP was launched in the Metropolitan, Essex, Lancashire, West Yorkshire, Merseyside, West Midlands, Greater Manchester, Nottinghamshire, South Wales and Thames Valley police areas.
Bedfordshire, Northumbria, South Yorkshire and British Transport Police were added to the initiative in November 2008, and Kent and Hampshire in March 2009.
Colin Knox, whose 18-year-old son Robert was fatally stabbed in south-east London last year, said the government's knife crime strategy lacked deterrence.
He said: "We need to send a strong message to the knife carrier - if you carry a knife you will get a custodial sentence, as a minimum of six months."
Professor Marian Fitzgerald, a criminologist at Kent University, said the government was putting too much emphasis on knife carrying instead of knife crime.
She said: "They have thrown a lot at very visible police enforcement, lots of stop and search, most of which yields nothing.
"Meanwhile that hardcore who are determined to perpetrate violence whatever is done are not being dealt with."

Obviously not as pumped for Sony's touch-screen cell phone as we are.

Sun was responsible for sending iPhone prototypes to Apple, and on July 13 he reported that he was missing one of the 16 fourth-generation units in his possession, the newspaper reported. His friends said company security guards searched his apartment, detained him and beat him, the paper reported.

Why didn't they blame Metallica for this. They did say "quench my thirst with gasoline". Perhaps the child heard the song Fuel and decided to have a beverage, and became confused about the song's message.

Oh wait, I thought you said Skull Man.
Leaded gasoline burns cleaner in cars without good catalytic converters than unleaded gasoline.
Apart from the lead.
And by cleaner I don't mean better for the environment, I mean less carcinogenic partial combustion products like benzene and stuff.
