I just joined this site today, having realized that this is actually based not too far away from where I live.

Having since allowed my car insurance to lapse and invested in a bus pass (bike, not yet, but coming), I have been scared out of my wits since reading Matt Savinar's website back in March. I've been trying to convince my friends and family that we're headed towards a crisis, but no one really wants to hear about it. I take comfort in the fact that every so often, I run into a person who realizes how unsustainable our consumer values are going to be long-term, but these people are far and few between.
