That's a lot for so early in the year. I tore my ACL in 2005. The surgery was really not the hard part; that was the therapy. How are you doing? Do your therapy! The company I work for has a service that might help be of interest to you. Called Kare360, it can help you work through those out of pocket expenses (email me if you want more information or just google it). Hang in there. Wow! That’s a lot for so early in the year.

I think it would be a tribe think like the native Indians. There will always be competition, it's what keeps us alive (unfortunately). I play out similar thoughts in my head too. What if instead of cars, there was something that didn't require paved roads... would that be awesome in itself? Instead were we would just float through the air somehow... Then again, with the internet, who need to even leave their house (lol, just joking). Would prejudice exist, or would everyone be treated equally from the very beginning?

One obvious example was the social problem of horse manure taking over city streets. Problem solved! No one frets about that now. There's something similar in this thought experiment you're doing. Would there be something more efficient than cars? Maybe. Or something a lot less efficient. Or maybe people wouldn't move around much at all. Is the wheel and axle intuitive?
