That blog post was "Freshly Pressed", featured blog post that wordpress.com folks highlighted. I believe I did comment on it --out of the 1,000+ others too.

Transportation mode choice is a choice, whereas genetics/race is not a choice..it is with you forever. Genetics/race is neutral itself. Not it's not a perfect analogy/comparison.

That said, one day I should blog about how advocacy for cycling and pedestrians, falls into the same realm...at times, as marginality for car-centric societies. Cyclists and pedestrians are viewed on the margins in overall transportation planning: in terms of annual spending budgets for municipal transportation, safety /vulnerability, etc.

Now over the next few days, I must plot my bike route out to some suburban industrial fringe to get a key from a company. I decided to figure out route by bike, after I realized the area didn't have sidewalks at all if I were to walk it from commuter train station.
