I completely agree with you regarding high density planning. In fact, I feel that it is a necessity that we start to take it seriously. Our future depends on it. You bring up a good point regarding peoples' varying degrees of health -- but a vast majority of those who cannot currently walk or ride any great distance would actually benefit from an infrastructure that protects their right to try it out. If they start small they would quickly improve their abilities. For those that cannot walk or ride due to additional limitations (physical or otherwise), I also agree that we need to push for greener transportation options (such as light rail) -- and in fact these will benefit all of us as well.

In short, by promoting self-propelled transportation and improving public transportation overall, we will all win -- even those who prefer to travel alone via Hummer.
