"Independence Day was more than a proclamation of autonomy from Britain.... it was an announcement of human rights and liberties: the bicycle is my personal independence from foreign oil, it's my American right to choose how I get to work, how I enjoy my freedom to travel how and where I want; I would hope those driving cars would understand that right, and extend me the courtesy of enjoying it.
