I totally missed the missing track!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_road_network_size says the US has the largest road network of any country. But both Australia and Sweden have a larger road network per capita than the US.

Every generation contains many who think the next generation is physically or morally suspect. I once looked for old uses of "silver platter", and found quotes like "We want to teach them not just to sit back and expect things to be handed to them on a silver platter but with confidence, based on their training, to go out and get what they want. We need to stiffen a moral flabbiness that has been affecting our youth." from 1937 and "We have reared a bunch of weaklings in our young marrieds of today. Too much has been handed to them on a silver platter without their having had to work for it, and they lack the intestinal fortitude to meet life as a challenge." from 1949. Also, the newest generation was raised during a time of gay rights, so for them the homophobic slur "sissy" has likely lost most of its sting.

Agreed. Most of these lists are things like "In Tallahassee it's illegal to bring a short-haired pomeranian into the Department of Education building", when the actual law is that dogs aren't permitted in public buildings. (Don't know if that's actually a law.)
