Forgive me if the list has already examined this case. I can't resist sharing it in case it's news. This item is from an environmental news service called Greenwire: "Justin Carven, a student at Hampshire College, MA, took an interesting route for his senior project.

The van gets 20 to 25 miles per gallon (Ellen G. Lahr, Boston Globe, July 27).
