Now you can experience the randomness of NYC subway passengers and performers (and etc...) from the comfort of your living room. Must be interesting, and just a bit scary, to do this regularly. 

Only several months after upgrading this blog am I finally getting around to putting an "about" page up, in case anyone was possibly wondering who was writing this stuff and for what purpose. I'm not actually sure that I ever had one for the blog to begin with. Anyway:

This blog contains my writings on urban planning, transportation, politics, computers, security, art, music, and anything else that happens to fly in front of my face while flashing brightly. A couple of years ago I figured instead of annoying my friends with frequent e-mail forwarding commentary on these various subjects, I would start a blog where they could ignore me more easily along with the rest of the world.

Who/my/me: Chris Andrichak. Transportation planner. Former software engineer. New York City resident.

I am an occasional contributor over at Live from the Third Rail also.

If you are interested in a back to nature, very relaxing, and very fun vacation in Costa Rica, check out this place: Finca Tres Semillas

My friend can set you up on a tour of Costa Rica, including the place above, run by his sister. I have been there, and it - like all of Costa Rica - is beautiful.

Friend to bicyclists and pedestrians of New York City and beyond (and good guy), Noah Budnick of Transportation Alternatives was seriously hurt in a bicycling accident (reportedly hit by a hit-and-run truck) the other day. Transportation Alternatives is holding a rally this Monday in his honor.
