About

We're a geeky group of friends committed to discussing the serious and important issues of the day: domestic policies and liberties, international relations, security, disaster preparation, law, science, art, literature, pirates and the myriad methods by which squids and octopuses mate. Okay, we mostly care about the last two.

Get out the vote

Much like voting on the backsides of the quarters that fill one's pockets, MUNI is soliciting feedback regarding new bus shelters that will dot San Francisco's streets. Until I saw this page, I had not idea that MUNI was also called the SFMTA. We have an MTA? That sounds soooooo Boston or New York.

As for my opinion, I think 1H and 2D1/2D2 tie as the biggest sight blights. I'm also a bit disheartened by the use of glass throughout the proposals. Isn't there some other transparent material they can use, since the current Muni shelters seems to have unfortunate encounters with ruffians toting baseball bats?
