I just get on with living the car-ownership-free lifestyle. I drop in here occasionally to see what useful and useless material there might be. I can't say there is any greater conflict than there was a year or two or three ago... in fact, probably there is less.

It seems to me many of the subject lines to do with oil, fuel pricing, motorist behaviour and so on are attempts to validate the lifestyle that some people have discovered.

Unfortunately, like any religion, there are the fundamentalists who want to take such discussions much further than they need to.
