After having cooked/eaten Breakfast at an overlook, we drove about a mile
on the Blue Ridge Parkway with it up, marveling all the while at the strong
mountain breeze in the van.

Doh!

My Agenda: Vanquish Suburban Sprawl.
My Methods: Revitalize mature urban towns. Champion mass transit and fast
Internet service. Demand replacement of archaic, "separationist" zoning
laws with neo-traditional mixed-use zoning.
The Result: Exceptional living/working alternatives; restrained sprawl; our
children inherit walkable, beautiful, interlinked towns. Find out more at

No lie!  I drove 15 miles once with the top up and it was an absolute slug
above 45 mph!  When I got out and looked, my eyes bugged out like a
tromped-on toad's...
