The above website is advertizing on Google on any page with results for
a search containing the term 'segway'. They are a DC law firm who is
apparently being paid by some interest group to scare the bejezus out of
potential segway buyers. Are they luddites? The auto industry? The
bicycle industry? The oil industry?

Apparently the law firm involved has previously specialized in helping
immigrants get into the US. From this, I think it's a reasonable
proposition to suppose that some foreign entity with interests that
conflict with the idea of segways replacing cars is involved, for who
else would be very familiar with an immigration law firm? Could be the
Japanese auto industry, could be OPEC, could be the european auto
industry.

It seems like this warrants further investigation....
