Aye, there's the rub....but where, may I ask, did you buy them? Not 20 miles
away, I'll warrant....

Until our shopping 'centers' also become our drop off centers, with their
empty trucks taking away the empties, recyclables, toxics, etc, we will
never have a sustainable system, and all the quacking about who gets to be
'on the bus' just a mask for the fact that 'the bus' is just another ICE
powered bit of heavy metal we don't need.

Why am I wrong?
