TIL rabies and drunkenness have similar signs.

I wrote a related reply about lack of small trucks in the US last night on The Autopian.
The large pickup/SUV was not exactly chosen by the people. The 1964 Chicken Tax has limited people’s choices and remains in order to give US domestic automakers an advantage over imported competitors. Combined with CAFE rules (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) of the ’70s small trucks were effectively wiped from the US market.
Why would a US automaker produce a small truck when they could produce a larger truck with more profit?
Reality TV is cheaper to produce than scripted shows. Profit is the reason all they show is reality shows.
If the IEEE (electrical engineering society) is saying something it must be really bad. They rarely if ever get involved in things like this.

Look into the 25% import tax on small work trucks- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_tax
Also, larger SUVs and trucks get preferential treatment under gas mileage standards. Someone more familiar can explain better.

AP's move is a little self-serving as smaller news orgs are likely to use AP's services (as well as Reuters').
HOWEVER, I think this is a good thing as AP and Reuters' normally provide news based on facts written by real people.
