What makes you think public transportation is more evironmentally
friendly than private? My only jet airliner trip had about 12 passengers
on board. I figure that cost about 100 times as much for fuel per person
as driving cars did. The concept that public transportation is cheaper
is based upon the unfounded idea that it is always operation at
capacity. In fact very little public transportation operates at more
than 10% of capacity overall. After all it has to be sized to carry the
rush hour traffic, but has to run all the time or it would not be a
viable alternative at all. I have often noticed that "Eco Freaks" have a
very strange concept of how economics work.

The truth is that I am, but I _do_ travel a lot by public transport.
