Coffee mugs do not promote coffee drinking. Trying to wake up or to stay awake does. A coffee mug allows coffee drinking. If a high speed train connected Tracy to Silicon Valley and the land prices in Tracy were high or there were strong land use controls, development would be curtailed. It's like saying guns kill.
Guns allow killing.
Guns, the coffee mug, the train, are mere tools. Don't blame the tools for the acts of the users. Widening it or re-engineering it will simply make it more attractive to more traffic, so the traffic on it will increase, which is bad for more reasons than just the danger. 1995-1996 W.R.Parker, All Rights Reserved.
