Reading Louv’s Last Child in the Woods (<a href="http://richardlouv.com/">http://richardlouv.com/</a>;) has had a deep impact on me and I can not resolve this. What was once taken for granted, days of childhood play and exploration over local hill and dale, has been replaced by endless hours in front of a screen.

If you’re on Facebook, click here to see the “There’s a Perfectly Good Cycle Path Right Next to the Road…” page set up to advocate intentional violence against cyclists. Probably set up as a joke, it now has over 31,000 fans. There are only four posts, all in November 2009, so my hunch is it’s not an active page, but the number of fans it has is alarming. [Ah but comments on those 4 posts are very active.]
I can’t stop thinking about the Johns Hopkins University student who was killed in that fatal hit and run accident on Friday.
Apparently this driver almost right hocked a cyclist (2nd most frequent bike accident) but "a officer saying that he wa doing a investigation.i told him what happen and he said not to worry that the other person have no case."
