8/29    Wed 8/29 and Thu 8/30 are Spare the Air days.  Ride public transit
        FREE!
        \_ Spare the Airbag days.
           \_ That too.  Less driving, fewer accidents.
        \_ Uh, last I heard public transit is only free until 1 or 2 in the
           afternoon, not all day.
           \_ Well, don't give yourself too much credit or sell yourself short.
              Libido can be affected by you not doing the dishes or stress at
              her work, or just about anything. Try communicating, but be
              prepared to be patient; odds are good you're not going to get the
              whole story the first time around, and no good will come of a
              conversation that begins with "Why don't you want to have sex
              anymore?" Last, if it's hormonal, she ought to see a doctor.
              1) It's often treatable, and 2) it can be a precursor to other
              medical conditions. Good look.
           \_ Only BART, Caltrain, ACE and the ferries are not free after 1pm.
              About 30 other transit agencies provide free rides all day.

7/1     BART labor union holding the transit infrastructure hostage.
        \_ Yesterday's SFGate poll showed that 11% of the readers sympathize
           with the workers, 17% with the management, and 72% with the riders.
           \_ The millions the Koch Brother's spent are paying off. Workers

7/29    Is it really true that we subsidize auto driving to the tune of
        $5k/yr? Shit I could probably hire a private driver for less...

        \_ You might have missed the point.  Hiring a chauffeur to drive your
           private vehicle won't change the amount of gasoline your private

10/10   Has anyone heard the CSX Train commercial on the radio?  I wonder why
        a freight railroad company bothers to advertise to individual
        comsumers.  It's not like someone can click "By CSX Train" when
        choosing shipping method on http://Amazon.com, or someone will choose this
        brand of pasta sauce over that brand at a grocery because it was
        delivered by a CSX Train.

2/10    Does anyone have an authoritative URL that shows the % of people

        In particular I'd like to look at trend as well.

        "The average (BART) union worker makes $114,000 a year in wages and
        benefits."
        And they're demanding a 3% raise.  Geez.
        \_ This is called negotiation by press release. What does the average
           worker who is not in management make?
