So when did hypermiling (or driving for good mpg) get to be JUST about driving slower? I don't drive particularly slowly, at least on 2-lane roads with curves. (On a freeway I'm probably going at the same speed as the semi I'm following: where's the fun in going fast if there're no curves?) But I get pretty good mpg (avg 70.2 over the last 5 years/75K miles) because I drive smoothly, use gravity to go faster on the downhills, don't race up to red lights, etc.
