The "Real" Risk: Bicycles!
=v= Check out this bizarre Op-Ed piece in the _Daily_News_:
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/idea...p-217248c.html =v= I did a web search on the author and found that she's head of one of those anti-environmental junk science groups. Hence her dismissal of the dangers of toxins and carbon monoxide, etc. =v= What's bizarre is that her idea of a "real" risk is being run down by a bicycle. This in a tabloid newspaper that has a seemingly unending supply of lurid stories and photos about cars and SUVs running down pedestrians! I think she comes off as a real idiot by freaking out over bicycles. =v= I do of course think it's hazardous and wrong to operate a bicycle in an unsafe manner, but to call this THE "real" risk is really kind of loopy. _Jym_ |
