Did anyone else see the Audi commercial? It seemed like an ominous foreshadowing of the sociali..err.. Environmental movement I keep forgetting about that disguise.

YouTube - Audi 2010 Green Car Super Bowl Commercial

Just seemed a bit... creepy.

It seems to have summed up the 'Cap and Trade' deal in a 30-second "let's lure the public in" feel. I mean... you are saving the environment right? That can't be bad right? Who cares about anything else? Right? ...


... Right?...

(Now where is my tinfoil hat? )

I think it was meant as a joke... Some people got it anyway.

But more importantly, what the heck is that animal with the leash?

Lol, after we watched that commercial my dad and I turned to each other and said "That was...scary..."

But more importantly, what the heck is that animal with the leash?

lmao I was wondering too. Looks like an ant eater or something

Or not lol. Who knows. Whatever it is... I wonder why they didn't use a dog. What isn't green about a dog? lol

Yeah, I am pretty sure it is an anteater. I'll google and try to find a pic of the right species. I think the one pic'd in the post above mine is a giant anteater.

EDIT - Here ya go. It is a lesser anteater:

Oh, and apparently his name is Mario and he's from Salinas:

Can't edit the last post anymore, but I found this news clip that has some nice shots of the little guy:
