Perhaps the OP of this thread will do some thinking and post his findings back on the original A&S thread of a proposed change in status quo (the "Bicycle City" proposal in SC) where some senseless comments and suggestions are being made.
What are your suggestions for making it easier for families to live without owning a car? If you are really as interested in their welfare as you purport to be, you must realize that life is getting more and more difficult for working class families as the price of gasoline rises. How about some concrete proposals? Or are attacks on your fellow cyclists all you are good for?
