Animal Transport vs. the Bicycle?
In a recent thread I asked the question if people are seeing an increase in cycling due to increasing gasoline prices. Many people have notice more - but not many - people cycling.
I think the automobile has been a strong, numbing drug to modern society. It made us accustomed to traveling long distances without exerting any physical effort (pressing down on the gas pedal and flicking the turn signal doesn't count). Because of this, I'm sure we'll see more people using animals for transportation.
I wonder exactly what we'll see. I'm sure horses will be used. Donkeys? Ostiches!?!?
