Whoa, I was just in San Francisco last week and rode Muni a lot, including the L line out to the zoo.

I’m curious to see what the investigation turns up. One thing I noticed while I was there is that the trains would run very close together – while one train was boarding in a station, another could be in the station a short distance behind waiting for it to clear.

The voiceover on this one is “Organizers spent over 1 million dollars on crowd control, security, and entertainment”

Susan Hutchinson came up behind me and my roommate while we were waiting there for the Tukwila-bound-and-back train. For a second, mid-clap, her hands were suspended like two tiny claws and her face in this t-rex like sneer. She looked like a Conservasaurus Rex.
