You are way out of touch with what is going on. Maybe, in the future, somewhen. But right now, a lot - don't have the percentage at hand - of the biofuel resources is standing in the way of food resources. > I exercise to keep myself very health.

What in particular has your personal medical story (no matter how interesting it may be, or how much empathy you deserve for it) to do with cycling as means of transport, its contribution to public health and the likes? You're calling everybody else here a technology laggard. But I do think, your case must some of a social laggard. best regards Tadej -- "Vergleich es mit einer Pflanze - die wächst auch nur dann gut, wenn du sie nicht jeden zweiten Tag aus der Erde reißt, um nachzusehen, ob sie schon Wurzeln geschlagen hat." <Martina Diel in d.t.r> -- (PC TUW-IVV)[ Auf dieses Posting antworten ]
