i was curious as to how people feel about this. what are your thoughts? does riding a bike earn you brownie/karma/moral highground points? should the very important person drive to work so they have more time to devote themselves to greater good? if i had the forum savvy to set up a poll, it might look like this:

1. transportation cyclists are better people than transportation drivers
2. the higher bike/drive ratio the better the person
3. a person's moral worth is inversely proportional to the amount of (resources consumed + pollution emitted)
4. i am a better person, morally, on days i bike than days i drive
5. a person should be judged only where they go and what they do there not how they get there
6. there's no such thing as a "better" person
7. there is such thing as a "better" person and it is a fixed value and can be determined
8. there is such thing as a "better" person and it is a variable value and can be determined
9. there is such thing as a "better" person and it is a fixed value but can not be determined
10. there is such thing as a "better" person and it varies but can't be determined
11. if there is such a thing as a "better" person surely they wouldn't be wasting their time on a thread like this
12. despite the inevitable cries of "none of the options quite fits my unique self" it is a waste of time to try and make a comprehensive poll
13. add your own
