Message text written by "Westerdale, Bob" >Consider, if you will, the average distance traveled as part of a daily work commute by European workers. I worked for Philips (Holland based company) in a US office, and the Dutch were always amazed at how far we Americans drive everyday to/from work.< The situation we Americans put ourselves in in terms of commute distances is a direct result of the low prices we pay for gasoline. We don't commute longer distances because God intended us to. We do so because we (as a society) choose to. This is but one example af the detrimental effects low fuel prices have wreaked upon our society. Dave |
