Would Americans ever voluntarily give up their SUVs, McMansions, McDonald's, and lawns?" </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/07/what_our_grandp.php"><P>He reminds us that in World War II "Americans simultaneously battled fascism overseas and waste at home.
