One day, posts will return with some frequency.
I have been wanting to write about parking for a long time but... have not. However, San Francisco is unveiling a new parking management system that works on the premise of market-rate parking, whereby prices increase (or decrease) depending on demand -- usually so that ~90% of spaces are always occupied. In SF's case, they aim for one free spot per block.
This sort of parking strategy can provide a myriad of benefits (as demonstrated in the video) as well as increase revenues for -- as utilized in other cities -- local area improvements (public space aesthetics, etc.).
Anyways, check out this video...

Two things:
1) A lot of discussion about this site happens on facebook; so, I would recommend finding the site (link on the right sidebar) and me there.
2) I'm experimenting with non-sign-in commenting to encourage more discussion (the 2 minutes it takes to create a google/other account seems like too much trouble).
Being 'anonymous' is pretty lame, so at least make up a fake name to use.
