In which I am 3 times as bold as Thomas Friedman, and years ahead

In the NY Times, Thomas Friedman finally makes a concrete suggestion for increased gas taxes:  boost them by $1/gallon at 5¢/month.  He had made a similar suggestion about 2.5 years ago, but it was fairly vague.

Maybe someday he'll catch up to my 2006 suggestion to increase the tax by $3/gallon at a nickle a month for 5 years.  Who knows, he might even suggest it before it gets done.
