Thirty million Californians can't imagine anything else. I had to learn, as a pedestrian, not to so much as stick my toe onto the roadbed until the light had changed, or all adverse traffic would come to a screeching halt. For a New Yorker (= habitual jaywalker), that's difficult and a little frightening. -- Schlingt dreifach einen Kreis vom dies! || John Cowan <jcowan@...> Schliesst euer Aug vor heiliger Schau, || http://www.reutershealth.com Denn er genoss vom Honig-Tau, || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Und trank die Milch vom Paradies. -- Coleridge (tr.
