We could muster all our will power, but that would be a lot of work. None of us like to think of ourselves as lazy. That's why we hide it behind a lot of excuses. We don't have time. We're too busy.
Time is money.
Gas stations are in the forefront of trying to help us be lazy, or as they call it in self-help groups from AA to ZZ, enabling. We work harder, pumping our own gas while the attendant doesn't work at all. Now, in their quest to make us all look like giant pears, Shell, Mobil, and BP Amoco are testing robots that find the gas tank, remove the special gas cap, fill the tank, screw the cap back on, and rub oil-stained rags on your windshield, all in two minutes and without your having to leave the comfort of your car. In Pakistan it does. Osama is now the number one name for baby boys.
