I agree with you. I live in a reasonably walkable suburb (a 72, I did not wait long enough the first time I viewed the sight and thought it was 50). While I take advantage of it occasionally, if it rains, snows, I'm in a hurry etc. I still jump in the car. I am working on an attitude adjustment to get me out of the car and on to my feet or bike more.
