Sean,

 SD> I live on a very narrow, windy country road that is the main access
 SD> road to David Crockett Birthplace State Park (yes, that Davy Crockett;
 SD> I live about a mile and a half from his birthplace).  It turns into a
 SD> damn interstate almost every day and people fly down this road doing
 SD> 60+ MPH.  I remember when Felix got out of the motorhome and decided to
 SD> lay down in the road.  Thankfully, the traffic saw him and stopped.  I
 SD> flew out there and picked him up, thankful that people were paying
 SD> attention that day or I'd have lost him a lot sooner than I did.

  Now, I'll be like that cartoon with the guy in the hospital with
bandages all over his head. The doctor walks in with this huge glass
jar of musical notes, and says "Good news, Mr. Smith!! We finally got
rid of that tune that was stuck in your head". King Of The Wild
Frontier, anyone?? :P

 SD> Yes, they have that problem here at ETSU (East Tennessee State
 SD> University).  When I went there, I couldn't tell you how many times I
 SD> was nearly run over by speeding or inattentive drivers.

  They threatened to put speed bumps on the road, but the merchants
across the street raised all sorts of grief with that idea.
