I forget the two cities, perhaps London and Manchester, but in 
Schumacher's 'Small is Beautiful' he points out the absurdity of two 
lorries passing each other, one carrying biscuits from Manchester to 
London, the other carrying biscuits from London to Manchester.  The cities 
were 100 miles apart.

In the US the absurdity involves cities 2000 miles apart, all made 
possible by cheap fuel.
