Get full fenders. I attached an additional mudflap made of stair tread material using 1/8in rivets. I used a Bostitch rivet tool, which has many other uses. The mudflap goes a long way toward keeping your feet dry and your drive-train clean.
You mentioned a road bike, if you have enough clearance get 25c tires or 28c if possible. I find a rack and panniers far better than a backpack/mess-bag.

I have suspected "product placement" in his books before. Volkswagen Phaeton's seemed a bit overly prominent in "Spook Country".

What he mentioned about riding a bicycle instead of using a car is a huge win.
The money saved is incredible and you cannot put a price on the health benefits.

See http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/08/reduciblecomplexit...
It is pseudoscience trying to mask itself as being legitimate. It confuses the public into thinking there is a controversy with regards to evolution where none exists.

My first computer, a Timex-Sinclair ZX-81, had BASIC commands tied to each key which made typing easier on that membrane keyboard. Perhaps it could employ a similar input device where the user could configure a keyboard with shortcuts for a given language.
