Nice Tech, with Onstar, is the Onstar system the same system as the black block system they are puting into cars now? You know where it will upload you speeding and they will send you a ticket thru the mail? You know Big Brother Bush stealing our privacy kinda thing, if so this gives me renewed hope, if it can be disabled, even better if it doesnt have to go in the trash.

OnStar is the remote assistance feature in GM cars: you hit the OnStar button and you can talk to someone who can do anything from remotely unlocking your car doors (useful if you lock your keys inside) to calling emergency medical services if you've gotten into an accident (they detect this automatically, IIRC) or if you request them to.

Oh, and by the way, way to go on managing to blame Bush for an industry decision. Would you also like to blame him for the recent earthquake in Iran--caused perhaps by not signing the Kyoto Protocol? The only way Bush has restricted your freedom is by signing the Campaign Finance Reform Act, aka the Incumbent Protection Act, aka the "Screw Free Speech" Act. Go be angry about that.
