What do you mean by that statement? Are you implying that people who do not have cars and who get around by bicycles have no lives? I have had a very happy and fulfilling life because I dont have a car and I can survive with a bicycle. Thing are far cheaper so I can spend my money on more important things like computers, ham radio, and entertainment such as opera and ballet. I spend less time sittling and doing nothing since I dont have to wait in traffic. My cardiovascular and muscle health is very good. I feel good. And you tell me I have no life. Very interesting. Mark Allyn P.S. Happeness is riding a bicycle loaded down with ham radio gear 6 miles in the rain to the opera, parking the bike *free* in the lobby of the opera house (not paying 10 to 15 dollars for the garage), and getting to the show on time rather than being late due to some traffic.
