- myself248 5y agoMany years ago, I was in the passenger seat on a road-trip that had a brief stop in Pittsburgh, to get lunch with some friends before we moved on. I absentmindedly commented, as it was summer and many folks were wearing shorts, that a _lot_ of people here _really great legs_. As the thought coalesced in my mind about why that might be the case, the driver responded "Maybe it's from trying to work the clutch pedal on these hills!"
