And it's not necessary. Roll with the punches and move on.

WE ALL do wasteful things from time to time. Nobody is "picking on you", so there's no need to defend yourself.

Moving along...
Ok, ok. I was trying to "cheat", and learned something along the way....

I just found it interesting what I learned.... less than 10 miles of stop & go city driving will cause a 20 or 30 mile average to be way below "highway careful cruising" even if you try to make up for it by "hypermiling". If I hadn't tried to cheat, who knows when, or if, I would have ever learned that. I'm new here and excited. Maybe everyone else here already knew all this...
