Default World CarFree Day

I know that here in the UK World Carfree day will pass virtually
unnoticed as usual, due no doubt to our national pathological
obsession with cars, but for those who might possibly be interested
here is some information.

"Every September 22, people from around the world get together in the
streets, intersections, and neighbourhood blocks to remind the world
that we don't have to accept our car-dominated society."

I'll take my Porsche for a fifty mile jaunt that evening to celebrate.
I love the smell of burning V-Power in the evening air

You will be OK because hardly anyone in the UK is aware of CFD, or
wants to be aware.

Just in case you haven't noticed, cars are Doug's all consuming passion. He
talks/posts about little else. It makes one wonder why he doesn't post in
uk.rec.driving.
