To the original question, regardless of the savings, why wouldn't you shut the engine off when it is not needed? I always kill it at red lights, try to watch the opposite light to see when my green is coming, and on lights I hit all the time I even count off in my head how long they take to change so I can fire it up with just a second or two to spare. Hardly too much effort to make on behalf of the planet and my wallet.

Yea, I hear ya. I like being at least a few cars back from the light. Although I can't see the light going the other way, I have time to start and move before the traffic ahead of me moves.
