[Az-Geocaching] Crash!

[Eric Bay]

I was driving home from lunch not too long ago and the one gas station open 
around my house (NW corner of McClintock and Elliot) had a 45+ line up to 
it, 45 is what I counted without counting the people at the pump.  It shows 
how dependent our society is on oil.  It also makes me wonder why people 
can't just use an alternative method of travel.  When traveling to a grocery 
store, or a friends house, or a movie store down the street, it would be 
very little hassle to bike or skate, but NOOOOO, "I need my car!!!".  
Granite I know that some people need to commute to work long distances at 
weird times of the day, but most places we need to go can be found within a 
couple miles of our house.  People are spoiled, big time, the gas situation 
could really be nothing if people would do their two bits to help.  Thats my 
opinion anyway, I'll get off my soap box now, hey, its time to skate to some 
close by geocaches. Huzzah!!
