Central Park Airport Proposal Brings Internet Fame to Environmental Parodists

I took a look at the site, and while most of your commentary is spot-on, it seems to me they are not poking fun at the Spartans, but rather at Cash for Clunkers. After all, what is the value of a small increase in MPG compared to:

- emissions from building new cars (especially hybrids)

- more miles driven (people will probably drive more in their new car than they did in their old "clunker")

- waste produced by junking old cars

There's more of course, but I just wanted to make an observation, not start a debate. The observation being, Cars for Clunkers is promoted as an environmental program, when really it is simply yet another stimulus/bailout.
