Well, I've yet to post it, but of interest:

I am 99% done (final draft phase) of a paper for my Comparative Political Systems and International Relations classes discussing what has made commuting by bicycle more acceptable outside the U.S., etc. Of note, interestingly enough, 3 of the 4 people who read it to help me move through the draft stages are now commuting by bike, thanks in part to my paper and the conversation they had with me after reading it.

Also, I convinced 2 others at my office to commute by bike, lowering the number of cars on my roads even further. I've also got an interview with the Mayor and key members of the City Council as part of the second stage of that paper I'm working on (it will eventually be 25 pages when the class ends, albiet, 4 different parts and aspects, et al.)

I thought it was interesting and pretty cool.
