Hi Kat,

Horses and horse carts actually are much more difficult to control
than cars, and when they were in use caused a lot of deaths. In the
area of pollution, you haven't seen pollution till you've seen the,
uh, manure that a horse can put out. This increases flies, rats, and
therefore disease, which is a very potent form of pollution.

Umm, how does this relate to Euphoria and this thread? Let me see if I
can dig (so to speak) my way out. Maybe this applies to gotos as well,
they, like the "good old days", only seem better than what you want to
do now. Convenient in some ways, but not in others.  Everything has a
trade off. Did that bring it back around to Euphoria?
