This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My main point was that boats aren't free to run. They require constant maintenance and care to remain viable. If you're going to include the maintenance and running costs of a horse team, then you need to also include the equivalent for boats.
Don't get me wrong, when you have a waterway, boats still win, by a large margin. Hence why Europe has so many canals etc.
