Slightly OT - isn't that the reason so many people are against grain-fed beef? I mean you're wasting tons of edible food just to make a few hundred lbs of edible food... I see a problem there.
Back On Topic - I see a few problems with me and a pedal-powered car - mainly, I'm lazy. Secondarily, I believe that my exercise comes from hard work, not pedaling, and Thirdly, I'm a redneck... we like to make things go
without having to work.
