Dear Google – normally I like your services, I really do; but I’m less than sanguine about your self-driving car idea – not for the usual “omgcrash!” reasons, but because – well, if there are enough people who don’t like driving themselves to make this worthwhile, shouldn’t we be improving public transit instead of pursuing a solution that will keep the same number of vehicles on the road as at present? I mean, your selling point is apparently “have your hands free on your morning commute to eat your breakfast, put on makeup, read etc.” I already have that. I take a bus. I can knit on my commute.

Could we at least keep up with the Mennonites (New Order)? Karl Schroeder might be able to help.
