The fix is in! I own and operate a pedalcab in Orlando, Florida; our City Commission is holding off on a pedicab ordinance until NYC passes one. And I thought 1960s Chicago machine politics was bad! Can't y'all impeach this tailpipe-sucker? Please!

Its worth a listen if you want to get really pissed off. I contacted Yassky over this earlier today and tried to shame him on the Earth Day angle...I think if the heat is turned up enough, we could win this one. The timing is right for us.
