I'm not sure that applies in the free market.
It seems less scofflaw companies aren't offered the chance to serve the same markets because criminal companies are let off too lightly.

I believe it does because the greater distance cars allow you to travel mean the areas you spend your time in are less likely to coincide with the areas others spend time in, so unlike the small town I grew up in, people don't become familiar, then friendships don't form. The car also allows shopping in large supermarkets, which result in the local shops closing down, and chance to become familiar with faces of the staff and fellow customers is lost.
I've been at parties and been recognised ~"I see you cycling along xxx", which I can't imagine happens to people who drive, both due to the enclosed nature of cars and the speed.

> In the United Kingdom, spent fuel is reprocessed at the Sellafield facility in Cumbria on the North West coast of England. Waste generated at the site comprises a wide range of radionuclides including radiocarbon (14C) which is disposed of in various forms including highly soluble inorganic carbon within the low level liquid radioactive effluent, via pipelines into the Irish Sea. This 14C is rapidly incorporated into the dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) reservoir and marine calcifying organisms, e.g. molluscs, readily utilise DIC for shell formation.

Or don't take the car for short journeys. Be part of a positive change.
Or don't take a job that requires long commutes. People want to live in location A and want a better job in location B and accept the fact they increase the risk of death in others, directly and through pollution, as a reasonable trade-off for their comfort.
I don't drive (34, Sacramento). Most people don't need to drive.
That's not accurate.

It used to be the case (still is?) that the dates on uploaded photos weren't applied to the photo album. I remember having to go through holiday snaps and change the date on each from the upload date to the actual date. The images were also resized down from what was uploaded.
So, if they have the originals with the full EXIF data, I'd like to be able to use that for my old photos!
Interestingly, the B12 people get from animals is probably from supplements they were given.

Its replies are widely supportive of the action.
> Password Rules:
> 1) At least 8 characters long.

My standard password pattern* has a different special character in it, so now I'm locked out for 24 hours because I can't remember what substitution/alteration I made! It kills me when "password requirements" purportedly for security are more restrictive on one site than the majority of others. I also infer the sites are rarely updated.
*I'm implementing Dashlane at work. To date, having a unique password for every site/service has felt secure.
I think for a large part the Internet is replacing television. Is there a suggestion that those spending over two hours/day online (correlating more in the report with loneliness) are being affected by the medium or content or they're just using PC rather than TV?
I'd wager that car use is also up significantly too. Better roads, better cars, more two-car families (28% of US households have more cars than people), kids not walking to school...
