Besides, "Curb sneaking" can sometimes be confused with "theres a guy back there that's going to turn left and I don't want to get stuck behind him/her". Also, waddya mean there's no history in LA? There's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grauman" rel="nofollow"> Egyptian </a>, Mayan, Chinese, and that's just the theaters! @hindinwood; I agree.

It has resulted in the loss of innumerable local treasures and culture.
