latest high-profile bike accident
Many of you probably heard of George W.’s latest bike accident, which resulted in ankle injury for the Scottish policeman that President Bush ran into, and minor scrapes for President Bush. Yesterday, there was an interesting conversation on Minnesota Public Radio about the crash. The program (I think it was All Things Considered but I’m not sure) invited a bike expert to comment on the accident. Part of the conversation was something to the effect of:
Expert: …so what happens sometimes is that on hot days, the asphalt on the road melts, and it gets slippery…
Presenter: So you are saying that global warming might actually have had something to do with this accident?
Expert: (laughter) As far as my knowledge in this goes, yes.
