If, as Feenburg says, technology is subject to the same interpretation and criticism as Art, Literature, etc... Then tell me, how do you interpret the Segway?

New places are already "segway friendly" because of ADA. Segways and wheelchairs go pretty well together. So design isn't really an issue, as far as segways are concerned.

How about obesity though? Obviously, the heritage foundation doesn't agree with findings by Smart Growth America that sprawl and obesity are linked. Then why are we so fat? Diet, yup, that's part of it, but sitting around all day, at the office, at home in front of the TV, and in cars is a big part of it.
