Since we're on the subject . . .

Walk San Francisco, which is working to ban "personal transportation devices" from the sidewalks of San Francisco, has an amusing page of cartoons about the Segway . . .

(By the way, why doesn't Missouri have more organizations like Walk San Francisco? There is the "Walk the St. Louis Area" web site--which lists ten St. Louis-area walking clubs--and Columbia-based PedNet. Are there any other Missouri pedestrian advocacy groups? I would love to hear about them!)

UPDATE: The San Francisco City Board of Supervisors did vote to ban Segways from the sidewalks of San Francisco, by a vote of 8 to 2.
