If you are really worried about Global Warming you can buy carbon
offset credits from me. Please send cash.

Actually, I was going to buy a G-II, but I changed my mind. How many
carbon credits is that worth?

Only about a quarter or what it would have been had you not purchased
a G-III with the much larger engine.

I was going to purchase two new SUVs, a Hummer, and one of those big
Chrysler pickups with the V-10...but I didn't. That should be enough
credits you can go out and buy two new airplanes. it also saved me a
lot of money I didn't have which should make my wife happy.
