Huh? Fight traffic to go two miles??? Where do you live? Mid Manhattan? Take the subway. Somehow that just does not sound like the truth Mr Art.

Nah, it's called Poor Urban Planning. My city has several traffic choke points where several major roadways join or cross at one spot. In one rather brilliant bit of urban engineering, we have no less than FIVE busy, four lane surface streets that feed into ONE, two lane freeway overpass. That single intersection alone can take 20 or more minutes to get through.

Since so many are comparing "IT" with the introduction of computers I guess if I wait twenty years I could get an "IT" that could go 3000 miles on a battery charge, have a top speed of 400 mph.,cost $200 and be the size of a dime. ;)
