About ten days ago, the AAA made a press release cherry picking the most controversial techinques and misrepresented it as common hypermiling in an alarmist tone.
While I've put a few of the articles up as News Items, it's been repeated hundreds of times.
If you want to see for yourself of past and present listings of this inaccurate representation of hypermilers, click Google News"AAA: Hypermiling is Dangerous" (http://news.google.com/news?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS278&um=1&tab=wn&scoring=d&q=AAA+hypermiling).
