A columnist issues a call for an alternative to the oil dependent, traffic-inducing automobile.
"The dirty little secret of urban planning is that traffic systems tend to behave like computer systems. Create new capacity and it will be used; create even more capacity, and it will be used even more... Ah, but those cars! They swarm like locusts in a field of wheat...
Let's put our heads together with the Wall Street and Detroit crowd and see if we can come up with a logical alternative to the car... Maybe you drive it sometimes; other times maybe it becomes part of a train. Perhaps sometimes it runs on pavement, other times on elevated ramps, or even subsurface. Sometimes you drive it, other times you surrender control to automated guidance."
