I am once again wondering why people on this list feel the need to be so nasty to one another.I'm sure no disrespect was mean't by this comment, but I am concerned about the rather mean tone alot of these discussions take. Disagreement is great, part of the point is to share different ideas with one another. I'm not asking for a pollyanna discussion, just a little respect for one another. For the record, a bicycle activist is someone who advocates safer, more accessable streets to ride in. I became an advocate after my husband was forced off the road by a car (who left the scene), had to have major surgery and lost three months of work.The police wouldn't even take a statement from him.
