Don the cat?  Isn't that a Dr. Suess character of some sort?  Or was
he in a Breathed strip?

Don can hold the down "cars rule" end of the discussion just fine.  We
need someone to represent that extremist point of view anyhow since 
it is the view of most of the people in town.  If he started riding a

we'd have to find someone else with whom to argue!
