why do cities open fire hydrants?

Answer:

A pearl of a question amid a sea of trash. This section has become overrun with reactionaries and taunters. It was a breath of fresh air to see your question. I think you already know the answer to the question, but here's my perspective: by nature, humans are good pattern matchers. We learn quickly to analyze people, ideas, things and situations in order to determine whether or not they are worth further consideration (safe/dangerous, for instance). As a result, we have an internal sorting system that quickly places things into very general boxes (theist, atheist) with a very general, lowest-common denominator description that could basically describe all the contents in each box. This description will always list towards each individual's own biases, observations and preconceptions. If we CHOOSE TO, we can take a further deliberate look into a particular box and sort its contents further (extremist, centrist, etc). At each successive step, we sort things into smaller and smaller boxes, using finer and finer filters to effect the sort. At some point we might reach a point where each person, idea or situation is in it's own individual box. At that point, we've reached some semblance of understanding (at least in our own mind). The problem with this is that it takes time and thought. Unfortunately, Yahoo Answers is not a place where either of those commodities is in abundance.
A side from the safety stuff, ( helmet, gloves, etc) when you go out for a ride: 1) Water bottle or a camel pak 2) If you go on long rides, a saddle pak with: A) a tire repair kit. (include a way to re-inflate the tire) B) a multi tool. C) a short piece of chain and a few master links.
the bike, of course, essential spare inner tubes, essential track pump or other pump, essential bottle holder, optional bottles,optional cycle gloves, optional helmet, essential steve you don't need that much, don't get conned into buying things you don't really need.
