The slew of comments on the ecogeek site defending TG by saying we don't get British humor is sickening. I never found Jay Leno's dismissive and inaccurate comments about EV's amusing and would never defend them as such. Humor is fine, outright lies and inaccuracies, not so much.

A bigger editorial appears in their print edition. This one doesn't mention Clarkson or Top Gear directly, but it's pretty obvious who they are taking aim at
