pausing on ballard bridge on the bikeride
home. life is better slow.

The day started on a
positive note after a too-cold bikeride in
man-skirt on Motobecane to Utilikilts,
where I'm very close to launching their site
redesign. (It was too cold to be riding a
bike in a kilt with no jacket but then I've never
been very wise about dressing for the weather.) An
email from Mark Watson informed of UN's
Car Free program. I quickly emailed
international advisor Eric Britton to suggest Seattle host the next
demonstration car-free day. When I got
home, Sarah told me he'd called from Paris to say
it might be possible, but only with strong mayoral
support. We'll see, I guess, but the quickness of
the connection, the setting of wheels in motion,
refreshed my faith in the Internet as a way of
changing things for the better. |
