The cities mentioned (and, really, all cities in the US) lack the dense
urban buildup that make anything besides a car practical. So, sure, it
might be possible to move away from 'a personal transportation system'
in some parts of the world, that's a non-starter idea here.
So, yah, you might hope for it to happen, but I don't see _how_.

Remember.
But move forward, too. Light a candle, yes. But also drive a rivet.
