Mobility stuff

1. Stephen Rees's blog focuses on transit, not just in Vancouver, BC, where he is based.

2. One of the items he linked to is a series from the area's free weekly, The Tyee, about going to a free fare transit system. This article, "Paying for Free Transit," has links to the other 4 pieces in the series.
