What is viatology?

If you've started reading these newsgroups, it's inevitable that you've
come across the term 'viatology'. So what does it mean? In its simplest
definition, viatology is the scientific study of roads.

Viatology spans international borders and is studied in all countries. It
can involve what types of pavement you've come across, how mountain passes
get constructed, route numbering assignments, etc.

The study is slowly becoming formalised. To help contribute to the science,
simply talk about roads and make your findings scientifically verifiable.
For more information on viatology, including etymology thereof, simply head
to http://wwtl.info/viatology.html for more information. With your
contributions to this field, who knows... viatology may become a scholastic
study at universities and research foundations domestic and abroad.

Correction: viatology is Carl Roger's term for the scientific study
of roads.

Only because some brain-dead plonker keeps making off-topic posts about
the bee in his bonnet. How about you just **** off?

For ****s sake Steve, will you please say what you mean, instead of
beating around the bush.

What Carl forgets to mention is there are NO Black, Hispanic or Muslim
"viatologists". Using his definiton, they are all "Causcaian". So if
you're a rascist bigot like Randy "pigsty" Hersh, you can be a part of
Carl's elite little club.

Sorry, I didn't mean to descend into difficult to follow metaphor.

Try to descend into a sealed underground chamber and do the world a favour.

Is it? How come I've never heard the term before, then?

Further correction: It's his operational definition for the scientific study of
roads.
