johnathansmith, sorry to pick on you, but leaf blowers use 2-stroke engines, see eastbeach's comment on 2-stroke vs. 4-stroke engines. Also see the word "proportionally" that I used when comparing auto and motorcycle accidents.

johnathansmith, what would you consider a "civil community?" Is Europe civil? Go take a look at a typical European city and see what percentage of people are commuting on motorcycles. My wife happens to know Curtis quite well and from what I've heard he is a responsible rider. Since traffic was backed up right before Fairview, I imagine this happened somewhere around 5-6 pm and if the sun had broken through yesterday the sun would have been right in Curtis' eyes. Regardless of what caused the accident, I imagine there are proportionally more auto accidents than motorcycle accidents and add up to far more congestion. Sure there are also hotshots out there that do stupid things on there motorcycles. But just within the last two weeks as I was commuting to or from work, in the fast lane, on my motorcycle, I have had two different people come up behind me driving way too fast, to the point that they scared me, then make sudden lane changes just to move up a bit in heavy traffic. And as for pollution, motorcycles are under strict emissions guidelines, use smaller engines than cars and consistantly get 50-60 mpg. The world would be a cleaner place if everyone that commutes alone rode a motorcycle.

Wow AShaw, glaucoma is one of the first aliments that cannabis was used to treat and probably one of the few that the government still provides federally grown and supplied pot for. Medical cannabis can be used for many, many things, not just serious pain. Elvy wouldn't be walking anywhere without a red and white cane if she weren't smoking or taking some nasty man made chemical compound. Both my wife and my Grandmothers, one in California and one in Washington, smoked as they were dying to keep there appetites up to increase their comfort levels.
