But for me it's not only when I'm in Ruby ('91 Camper). I also go slow in Workar ('93 Escort) too. It's those assholes with automatics. They live in a push-button world. I'm the same way sometimes when I'm running around Portland (OR) in a company cruiser ('94 Sable wagon). I hate what those cars bring out in me. I always keep the rear curtains closed in Ruby and I removed the rear- view in Workar. Everytime I have a close encounter, I fantasize about that bumper- sticker I've wanted to make: "If you're in a rush, you've clearly made a tactical error getting behind me. Have a nice day."
