"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"

Communicate on the Road - Letting In Truckers

While Wendy holds down the fort, I'll still post when I get get online! :) There's always SOME way to help on the road. Jen

The project:

Help big-rig truckers pass and change lanes with simple headlight communication.

Time:
Seconds each time. Untold number of assists in 800 miles.

Why bother?Non-verbal communication with strangers works just as well as verbal communication. And it's handy sometimes. (Here's how to do it.) Plus, it's a simple way to help out road-weary travelers with long loads.

Worth it?
Absolutely.
