Rural areas are less an applicable argument against walkable city development. I've lived in rural Tennessee for a lot of my life, I understand; however, talking about that environment in the context of city development discussions doesn't make sense.

Oh, yeah, in City environments theres no excuse not to be walkable and transitable

edit: I see I missed the word city in the paragraph that Lisa was ranting about. I thought this was a rant targetted towards ALL environments and not City Specific
