Quote of the day

We're told cars are wasteful. Wasteful of what? Oil did a lot of good sitting in the ground for millions of years. We're told cars should be replaced with mass transportation. But it's hard to reach the drive through window at McDonald's from a speeding train. And we're told cars cause pollution. A hundred years ago city streets were ankle deep in horse excrement. What kind of pollution do you want? Would you rather die of cancer at eighty or typhoid fever at nine?

P.J. O'Rourke

Pretty brave of you to sign this with your full, real name... Bob.

You're suffering from a pretty severe case of craniorectal inversion, aren't you Bob?

Bob's a typical hit-and-run commenter, common to many blogs. Most other commenters tend to be good neighbors, visiting often and courteously.

I've left Bob's comment up as an example of the sort of vandalism I do see from time to time.
