Default Good news; oil prices up. Car-free cities a distinct possibility.

It is a sad way to promote HPVs since many of my neighbors are freaking
out about many costs going up due to gas- pizza, TV, grapes,
deliveries; but the book on Car-free cities is so timely! Good
reading, thanks to the library. Cost Effective!

Sooner the better. Best of all possible worlds.

Bike to your cost effective library and check out the Mad Max movie.

Bring it on.

A solid rubber bike tire weighing 10 pounds is a man's tire. Candy assed,
easy riding, speedo wannabes - don't even go there. You can't handle this
tire.

Our society has refused to prepare for the consequences of burning large
quantities of fossil fuel. Therefore, as a society, through our
irresponsibility we will have earned the disastrous consequences of
excessive carbon dioxide emissions and future energy shortages.

Enjoy the coming suffering, destruction and death of the 21st century!
