After some thought and questions I've decided on a course of action and would like some help. I'd like to create a cheat-sheet on what is wrong with cars. By this I mean to generate a list of blanket statements like "cars emit greenhouse gases," "cars release oil into storm sewers," "cars are responsible for increased hospital costs." And on and on... Each blanket statement would be a link. Each link would point to a page of links detailing information on that statement. I'd like feedback on the idea itself and also methods of construction. The purpose of the cheat-sheet would be a starting point in conversationwith environmentalists and climate "experts" who refuse to reject car culture. My background has little to do with research; I'm willing but not practiced at this. I find people pointing me toward books and I see a problem: a link that points to a book title will go nowhere. Some people might click a link a look at information but very few will click a link, see a book title, and get the book. I am willing to write authors to get permission to put sections on the web - not sure if that's a useful direction. I will assume that my audience is hurried, harried, and possibly hostile to the thought of looking at their addiction. They need to be spoon fed and will not go to the information - it must come to them. Does anyone know if there is a utility that can create a pointer to a paragraph within a long document? Can anyone give me any web based car-free links? Can anyone help me in the construction? Does anyone know of good research tools? Is there a place to store information that I scan? Thanks everybody, Bob. 604-440-0860 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "World Carfree Network" group.
