Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

The externalities of cars scale with weight, size and speed: space taken, gas burned, tire particulates, noise, pavement, cost to consumer and, above all, crash force, injuries and fatalities.
Shrinking cars would accomplish most of the goals of EVs with many ancillary benefits, like fewer deaths.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.
