Toyota, if you don't agree with their claims that global warming doesn't exit why would you support their efforts to decry the fact that it is a serious problem for the entire world?

What I found interesting was not that I received the exact same (canned) response, but that I received it less than five minutes after hitting the Send button. Obviously, Toyota's computers are searching for specific keywords in the correspondence they receive, and sending form letters in response. I guess we just have to hope that our letters and pleas aren't hitting the garbage before they're even read by a human being.
