I think I've realised what Doug's purpose is in posting to newsgroups.

It's not to advance any cause, it's not even to get people to change their
ways and stop using cars.

It's for one reason and one reason only, to make himself the centre of
attention.

As long as he's got people's attention he's happy.

I do more to reduce my impact on the environment than Duhg. Countless
times he's posted carbon calculator links and every time I've beaten
him hands down even including the car use.
