Thoughts On Posting
I'd like to take a few moments to share about the posting frequency here. Much like my Seattle Bubble blog, the topic that I have chosen to dedicate this blog to is of a relatively specific nature. As such, there is a rather limited supply of new information available at any given time that is worthy of posting. There are plenty of news stories every day about the traffic, cars, or parking in general, and you can easily find them with a Google News search. Repeating and re-hashing every traffic story under the sun is not something that I am interested in doing. In fact, before I started this blog I actually performed some internet searches to make sure that a similar blog did not already exist.
Rather than adding yet another voice to the discussion on the more general topics, as I have stated before, I intend to keep this blog's focus centered on the specific topic of "news and discussion about traffic, roads, parking, and other related issues in the Seattle area." As such, if there is no news about Seattle area traffic issues on a given day, there probably won't be any posts (unless I think of a good discussion topic). Other days, there might be five or six posts. There will be busy surges and boring lulls. I expect it to be quite random, and I just wanted to make sure that anyone reading this doesn't come on a five-post day and expect it to be like that every day.

Tim,
Welcome. Good topic. And, yes, don't rehash, but highlight and analyze the situation specific to our area.
Who knows where to download XRumer 5.0 Palladium?
Help, please. All recommend this program to effectively advertise on the Internet, this is the best program!
A good article in WIRED Magazine( http://www.wired.com/magazine/2012/01/ff_autonomouscars/all/1) states "Even at its most packed, only about 5 percent of a highway’s surface is covered by automobiles;..."
Seattleites drive non-optimally: we are scared to drive close or fast; a little rain slows everybody, some snow cripples the entire city. Even folks with SUVs can't manage a little snow. We need massive driver re-education for city driving: efficient, defensive driving. Optimization of lanes: I see lots of cars stuck in a lane when the next one is open and flowing for long stretches. We merge too early, causing cascading slowdowns for no reason. We could borrow a leaf from New York City drivers. This is a city--drive bravely and expertly with a purpose and destination. (Yeah, I'm the guy who's always honking at you to get going :)
