here's a random clip:
"My friend Davey once said to me "But deep down, you hate cars, right?" I found myself telling him, “No, I love bicycles.” Like almost everybody else, I've seen the car ads with the professional driver on the closed course, weaving through redwoods or driving along the Pacific Coast. It's always the only car on the road. That looks like fun. But that's not the real world, the world packed with way too many people packed into way too many cars. I don't hate cars; I hate the sprawl we've built for cars, and as Mr. T would say, "I pity the fools" stuck inside those boxes."

Traffic doesn't behave like a fluid, it behaves like a gas. It fills the available space.

That was a very interesting read, Mimi. Thanks!

Ah..the double edged sword..I've often thought whilst (that word just seemed right here) riding what I might be riding on if it weren't for cars...

There's a lot of roads that I look at with one or two points of view - what it would be like to ride a bike or sled down. I tend to prefer things that don't require internal combustion engines. :cool:
