Grant says,
How the hell can the U.S. Department of Energy be so stupid and not
include the Bicycle? Us cyclists all know that the bike is still the
most efficient machine ever created. Hell, Bush even rides one after
a McDonalds double cheeseburger and large DIET COKE, gotta burn
those calories...or burn more CRISCO that is! For 6 years of college
I rode my bike to work and school every day, but I never saw a tax
break (f*#$ing goverment). But if I owned my own business selling
shower curtain rings door to door while driving my Hummer, well, I'd
get to write off every mile driven—all while eating McDonalds Oil
For Food Burgers.
Damn I hate BUSH, then again
sometimes I love it.
American Road Cycling had not noticed
that the Bicycle was not listed by the
U.S. DoE,
because posting the link merely came from the first steps of
research trying to figure out how to get rid of everything even
remotely resembling fossil fuels in our lives. Plus, we've already
got this cycling thing under control.
In any case, this horrid situation with big-ass
storms taking out refineries, pipe lines, roadways, etc. while
shooting gas prices through the roof (where they should have
already been years ago), will give us all a chance to rethink the
logic of living in a car most of the day. Maybe roadways pre-built
to American Road Cycling specs (bike friendly) may be the
only happy result of all this weather.
On the other hand, it is good to have an
opportunity to publish Grant's political and sexual
orientations...though we truly believe neither.
BTW: In the interest of clarity, the American
Road Cycling spell checker reports that the words "f*#$ing
government" should be corrected to "fucking government." Grant's
keyboard probably has an oil slick on it.
