ecogeek.org — You think you hate sitting on the runway couped up in a plane that seems to be going nowhere. Well, the airlines (and the planet) hates it too. In 2007 $1.6 billion of jet fuel was burned by planes waiting in line to take off at airports. That's 740 million gallons of fuel.

And how many Billions were wasted on idling cars, or stuck in traffic jams?

No one likes waiting. But if I had to choose a place, it would be a runway. Or a run-away truck ramp. Or a rug weave.
