This list is sounding like a bunch of worry worts! Do you want to build a carfree city or not? (package delivery?!) (personally It sounds like quite a lot of effort- one might also consider taking over a place, closing the streets down and going from there- then again, a new development might be easier) > - Not having a car [when I didn't have one between 16 and 18]. > - Having a car that's too old, too small, and/or too efficient. > - Having a car and not driving it point to point. > - Living in a 1960s apartment complex with a very small, > tight-cornered parking lot that, unlike at new complexes, doesn't have > entry/exit points at both ends and allow for driving through it at 30 > mph. I long ago ceased to care a whole lot what others think! (It's nice to have a few people who value something about you though) http://experienceart.org My advice: move to nyc! (or out of the US) (or find a place where you don't mind being one of the few carfree-Monterey, CA worked for me for a while. DC also is nice.) I'll help you move here and find a job. If you show up tuesday you can stay in my place for two nights or I can show you how to find a room the same day you show up for no more than $100/week in a clean apartment with spanish speaking people. Let me know when you plan to arrive! :) Colin
