      From: dannyb@panix.com              Looks like they're about to reintroduce       the DannyPass as a bus travel standard [a]              https://dcist.com/story/22/12/06/free-metrobus-service-dc-council-first-vote/              [a] during the initial horrors of SARS-II, dannyb was instrumental       in getting NYC to close off the front doors on buses, have passngers       enter through the rear, block off the first five rows, and thanks       to that decision... NYC bus drivers kept coming to work.              (If the bus system had shut down, NYC would have, too).              To give credit where due, dannyb saw Detroit announce       this on Tuesday, promoted it in NYC... and they prepared       it over the weekend              _____________________________________________________       Knowledge may be power, but communications is the key        dannyb@panix.com       [to foil spammers, my address has been double rot-13 encoded]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
