The Anytown crew explores the many facets of walkable communities, how cars change communities, and how lack of walkability hurts local business.
Early discussion explains how far people had to walk to get off their own farms. Other topics covered include how well spaced the grammar schools are in the town, minus where Brendan lives (even though he has two schools he can throw a rock to). Also, a brief history of how the rise of the supermarket may have contributed to less walkability, along with their larger, evil(?) cousins, the shopping mall. Vernon talks about sending his kids to the park, mobile phone etiquette is breached, a preference for prime numbers is mentioned, and once again the idea of a new theme song is bandied about.
