the indiana university study that was funded by the alliance, actually shows the hundreds of thousandscreated as a result of the standards. so it is a positive economic outcome, new data based on what has been put out. the list is extensive. >> okay. as i mentioned earlier, the international agency has found that the transportation sector is the only one in which energy efficiency has been in this country over the past 15 years. have you seen a factor here in the united states to explain this trend? why do you think that we have become less efficient in the transportation space? while more efficient elsewhere? >> i think one of the things that is critical is the result of a makeshift. we are seeing a swing back to the purchase of larger cars and trucks. suvs and pickups. and so it is really critical that the standards remain strong because they drive improvements across the vehicles and ensure that cars, trucks and suvs get more efficient over time. and so we have seen a plateau as a result of that mix but these standards will continue to drive that and put us back on the right course.

i was at a university, the university of indiana, bloomington. and they wanted to put in water fountains on the campus, so that everybody could have water for free, but it seems like one of the big corporations, dare i name it, nestle, had given funds to the university. and along with that, came a contract for bottled water. and they would not let the university put in water fountains because it would cut into their bottled water business. so, this is what is happening. and i go many places and visit many enlightened universities around the country, but these corporations have, you know, really locked in their contracts, and sweetened it with a donation for a building, or an endowment or something. and it is very difficult for the university to take the risk. and i am just waiting for one, i hope the university of california can do this because they have a food and agriculture initiative that they want to achieve by 2025. but they are going to have to go up against that big-money, and it always comes down to that. jose, i don't know if you have e
