It just makes sense within the rules       of the road --if enforced.              What we are witnessing is everybody trying to go faster and everybody is going       slower. And this chaos provokes road rage and many more accidents.              I emphasize the word "cooperation" because it proves my point that any system       that relies on it works better. Everybody trying to go faster is dysfunctional.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
