Christ, there's a bunch of hypocrites on this newsgroup. I haven't had a car since I sold our last estate car in 1992, a quarter-century ago, because it was growing moss just standing there like a big old dog wanting to be taken walkies. We walk, I cycle, if I want something delivered, I call the taxi service, if I need to go somewhere (or more likely have people picked up at the airport) I call the limousine guy who has a nice Rolls, and anything large I want is dropped off by the vendor. It's actually more convenient, and less of a waste of time tending to the beasts, not to have a car at all. Best of all, the exercise keeps me alive.

I'd call myself an environmentalist, except I find the environmentalists so determinedly ignorant, and faith-driven, just like the religious fundamentalists, I'm embarrassed to be associated with you.

Now listen to the worthless excuses for keeping a car -- or several.

Yea but you are wasting a bunch of resources by having a bicycle, you know.
You don't really need that "thing" and if you weren't a hypocrite you
would just walk everywhere.
Think of all the precious resources you could have saved (for whoever?)
and all the exercise you could have gotten (that you don't want)...

Actually Frank is an intelligent and knowledgeable person. The problem is that he doesn't know what he doesn't know. And maybe we all have that disease.
