Personally, I think it should triple here too, along with parking meters and speeding tickets. I only hope the era of the private car ends before the era of human life on Earth does.; Sun May 25, 11:25:00 PM EDT

The part that really pisses me off is that we've given control of our country to oil-producing nations that clearly wish us harm.; Mon May 26, 12:43:00 PM EDT
michael sean morris said...: It's been very hard for me to accept that the legislation which most improved the environment in the last fifty years was passed by the Nixon Administration.

Still, the solution for less traffic is fewer cars, like the solution for less urban sprawl is higher-density living.

If public transit were as heavily subsidized as private cars, there would be free buses every five minutes 24/7.; Wed May 28, 11:29:00 PM EDT

Why Oh Why?
