   Yeah, but wait a second, Rachel. That's not the same thing as having
   a public highway going past. Calling something a "road", and
   sharing a collective fantasy that these are real city streets, does
   not change the fact that these are just cleared spaces between tents,
   out in the middle of nowhere. The only people who are going to
   see anything "lewd" going on, are people who have driven out to this
   more or less private location, with the reasonable expectation that
   such acts might be going on in front of them (based on a decade of
   precedent), and had to go to considerable trouble to get there.
   To compare the Esplanade to the Beltway, in terms of status as
   "public places" would be ludicrous. Citations based on taking whimsy
   literally, are not things that the authorities should be in the
   business of giving out. What's next ? Ticketing tourists in Walt
   Disney  World  if  they walk across Mickey Mouse Lane, for jaywalking,
   because
   they  didn't  go  to  the corner of Donald Duck Drive ? Come on ! What
   ever
   happened to common sense ?
