This is great news. It’s nice to see bike advocates being vindicated, considering all the public and business community adversaries they face. To address the comment about drivers bearing a “disproportionate” tax burden: if drivers were truly to bear a proportionate tax burden they would be unable to afford to drive. Bikers cause less damage to roadways and do not pollute, as well as promote healthy living. Drivers already get away with murder by fueling up on subsidized gasoline and rarely paying tolls, all the while roadways crumble. Leave bikers alone, good behavior should be incentivized, not taxed.

(too long for twitter) #cityideasdigitally integrate CSAs and CSA members by using a Farmville (fbook)-like application so that city residents can monitor their crops and share the success (or failure) of their crops with friends. Ideally, this app will be available across social networking platforms as well as in RSS feeds. Make CSAs more popular and publicly conscious by using web 2.0-tech.
