The interns at the National Institutes for Mental Health don't have enough to do, it seems. "Intermittent Explosive Disorder"? I bet it took some brain trust hours to come up with that.

The woman in the car ahead of me the other day who turned her head to speak to her passenger just before the light turned green was treated to a short blast from my horn when she didn't get off the dime when the light did turn green. She probably felt she was subjected to a manifestation of IED. Fine. It did give me a nice shot of serotonin, though. I got traffic moving. I was at peace. Dare I say that I felt empowered?

p>Perhaps NMIH is putting the cart before the horse. Maybe we just need a good episode of IED to get our daily dose. br> -- Evelyn Leinbach br> Colorado /p> p> Mr. Peters has missed the point completely in his article. It's a little more involved that living closer to work, satellite radio, or anything else like that. We all know what the real problem in this nation is, why people are so stressed. Road rage is merely a symptom of something a lot more serious. The cure starts with a belief in a Divine Being, an acceptance of a biblical set of rules for living, and an adherence to having morally righteous people as leaders. From there, it becomes easier to cure what is wrong today. br> -- Pete Chagnon /p> p> Since 1960, the total length of roads has been doubling every 261 years while the U.S. population has been doubling every 113 years. Yet, the Eco-Freaks would have everyone believe that we are paving over the world. I suspect that the answer to congestion relief is to get rid of traffic engineering advice from the Sierra Club. br> --
