There are a lot of areas where some 'lifestyles' just don't work.
It's a little silly to move to the middle of Los Angeles and complain
you can't keep your horse in your apartment, just because you enjoy
riding a horse everywhere. Keith likes to live a certain way and do
certain things and he lives in an area where those things can be done.
I like to live a certain way and do certain things and I likewise live
in an area where those things can be done. It's silly for Keith to
turn around and say that his way of doing things is better and that
everyone, regardless of ability, should be doing things his way.

If riding the bus and train and bicycle works for him, more power to
him. I'm glad he has the life he wants to lead. Now it's time for
him to give me the same respect. I'm not holding my breath though.
