"Is riding to work on a bicycle rather than going to the gym a reduction in lifestyle?"
Even if 100% of gym users switched to riding a bike, what percent of the world goes to the gym? What percent of these users work close enough to home to ride a bike? Not to mention that the cardio/leg workout of riding a bike does not equal the other stuff available at a gym.
Is eating a shared meal with your neighbours rather than eating in some fast food joint halfway across town a reduction in lifestyle?"
Then, how may people drive "across" town to eat fast food. No, people drive "across" town to eat good food. Fast food is gotten around the corner for convenience. Both of which are often done with neighbors/friends:)

How many people have the property/climate to grown their own fruit? Yeah, those city dwellers are screwed.
It sounds like you've got some throw-away lines too.

Driver's Ed? I thought they stopped offering that back in the 80's!
Oh, it also sucks if you have a good contract, and the aquiring company doesn't have as good a contract for its employees.
If you had a good contract, then it would cover aquisitions... perhaps even with a large buyout.
