Bussed to move

This local blogger reports that high gas prices and overall poverty in general have finally led more people in KC to the bus stop. Overall, I think this is good news and what's even better is that new riders are finding that the Metro/MAX isn't as bad as they previously thought. In the end, this is a win/win situation for everyone because people get to save money and travel in a surprisingly pleasant form of transportation and I get to enjoy fewer douche bags on the road as I speed through the city, wasting fossil fuels for a trip I could have easily walked to that probably involves buying more aerosol cans filled with something toxic and then spraying them into the air for no reason whatsoever.
