Response: Do you see it on planes cause that's proof it doesn't work.
ME: Actually here is an example of planes and trains and boats.
Response: Oh, well in that case they aren't like cars and so it doesn't count. Show me data to support this on cars
ME: I show research focused on cars.
Response: The data isn't good enough because computers suck, and there's no way manipulating 1% can impact anything.
ME: Well manipulating 1% is worth millions in research for some companies, and they are hoping to see a decrease in drag/decrease in consumption.
