Tom -

The controls consist of leaning forward and backward, therefore there is no manual shifting. If you've ever seen a motorcycle with a (rudimentary) auto transmission, they are obscenely huge. This thing as half the size of the smallest sportbike I've ever seen, so it does not have space for an automatic tranny.

It's basically a Segue styled to look like a unicycle.

Of all the people to get pissed at for this, you choose... the photographer hired to take the picture?

Not the father or mother? Or her agent?

Newsflash: people are selfish and lazy. If you give them a handout just for breathing, you teach them that there's no point making an effort to earn a living.

Well, the first two comments covered what I was going to say... so I'll express surprise that the boss has the only keys to these things. What if he doesn't feel like letting them go to the bathroom?

You showed a ton of bias in the sections of the article that you chose to quote. Here are some important parts left out:

"At the moment, there is an effort being made to overturn a ban on some types of weapon in Washington DC.

Among those dead against this plan - those who claim it would turn the nation's capital into the Wild West - is a lanky black man (he looks like a basketball player) called Anwan Glover.

Anwan peeled off articles of clothing for our cameras and revealed that he had been shot nine times.

One bullet is still lodged in an elbow.

His younger brother was shot and killed a few months ago.

Anwan was speaking to us in a back alley in north-east Washington. If you heard a gun shot in this neighbourhood you would not feel surprised. "

"Wait till you get to London Texas, or Glasgow Montana, or Oxford Mississippi or Virgin Utah, for that matter, where every household is required by local ordinance to possess a gun.

Folks will have guns in all of these places and if you break into their homes they will probably kill you.

They will occasionally kill each other in anger or by mistake,"
"What surprises the British tourists is that, in areas of the US that look and feel like suburban Britain, there is simply less crime and much less violent crime.

Doors are left unlocked, public telephones unbroken.

One reason - perhaps the overriding reason - is that there is no public drunkenness in polite America, simply none. "

So a difference in average reaction time that is less than a hundredth of a second equals racism now?

Racism would be if you take the test and shoot all black people or all white people regardless of weaponry.

MoonCake -

The problem is that the government is already interfering in food prices, on behalf of farmers. In America, there is a legally mandated price floor for milk, and corn/grain farmers get money from the government.
