for the casual fans - i don't have a driver's license because i decided when i was 15 or so that i was going to boycott the oil industry. it was a purely ethical choice, at the time.

i really don't regret making that decision, even if it's been somewhat frustrating now and again; while it would be useful to rent a car or van when i need one, i remain entirely disinterested in car ownership for all of the same reasons.

so, i couldn't just drive myself from ottawa to windsor; i needed a driver.
