Unleashed on Vermont’s Roads

My son, Andrew, turned 15 this weekend and, in the wisdom of the State of Vermont, he is eligible for his driving learner’s permit. Tomorrow morning, I will take him to the Department of Motor Vehicles and, with any luck, he will be annointed as another member of the gas-guzzling public. How will we ever make any headway against global warming?

In reality, he is a very sensible young man who will make a skilled and responsible driver. He and I sat down today and talked about what he’s looking forward to, and what he’s nervous about, once he gets his learner’s permit.
