there is absolutely nothing car or media related in this (other than computer chips). the closest are two ads, one for exxon mobile discussing their investment in new energy sources that are environmentally friendly, and one from GM for the hybrid shuttle bus they have delivered to yosemite state park. clearly, the advertisers think scientific american draws readers who a) are extremely environmentally conscious, and b) are not thinking about buying cars. an interesting combination.
