10. Agreed.
But we have to get on the stick and do SOMETHING.

I live in a city of about 300,000. Our mass transist SUCKS. If I needed to take a bus, I'd have to get up at 4 a.m. to get my kid to school and be at work at 8 a.m. and then I'd never have time to do much of anything else, because we couldn't get home until 8 p.m.

We've, unfortunately, built our cities around cars and not much else. And I don't think Americans are going to give up their cars - and the convenience - without a fight.

You can't tell me that in this great big country, with all our ingenuity, that we can't come up with a fucking car that runs on garbage or something. Or, do I think too much about "Back to the Future?"
