i agree with you - i live in london near waterloo station, and i chose to live here because a) i can *walk* to work in the city in 25 mins, and b) i can *walk* into soho to go and play - oh and get back easily when i'm doing a 'random-walk' home :) (and a black cab is v. cheap too)
the bus takes me 'bout 10/15 mins (but is usually held up by cars for the last mile of the journey) so i'd rather walk and get the exercise. what the extra costs me on the house i save on car insurance, capital/depreciation on the car, fuel, road tax and stress.
i'm happy with the charging, that's why i voted for ken. if you're not happy, vote him out. if you wanna drive your car, fine, go ahead, but realise that it's causing other people problems (like slowing down the public transport system) so don't be surprised if people react. i'm not anti-car, just that people in large groups tend to do collectively stupid things without accepting personal responsiblity or liability.
