Why I don't ride/walk/EV:
1) distance - I'm in the "not a good fit" category @ ~23 miles each way
2) cost - even taking public transit is 2x cost of driving
3) safety - you wanna bike through Newark, NJ? And that doesn't include the roads!

I'd telecommute, but it's a dangerous economy to be heard and not seen. If I had my fiance's 3-4 mile commute, I'd bike it.
