my toy is on the "wrong" side of the line, but I allow myself some latitude. As I said, the world is not black and white, and finding a balance between fun and environmental responsibility doesn't make me a hypocrit.
I have done the same with applicances and picking what vehicle to drive, one of which is an SUV, but it is a 4-cylinder 4-runner that gets over 20mpg...and we bought it back in '96 becuase it was "cheap". And by today's standard, it is barely an SUV.
In the end, each person does have to make their own choices about what is "waste" and what isn't...that is until the resources in question either become too expensive to use, or all gone altogether. Truth be told I'd actually love to sell the 4-runner and get a Prius, but I don't want to spend the $$$.
