No doubt, really, but from what I've read and witnessed, the effects are 
more in the urban areas where there is alternative transportation, or 
where the jobs allow work from home. I think technology advancement away 
from internal combustion has had a huge effect as well, and it's 
inevitable. How many young people have ever seen a 35mm slide or 
listened to a 33-1/3 LP (or even seen one)?

Good news is there is still a bug in our human brains that likes 
mechanical things, and another that likes old things. Which is why more 
of us need to respond to Mitch Utsey about bringing our cars over to his 
school. Ahem. Nothing but crickets so far...
