Drive all you want, parking's gonna cost you extra.

Those aren't "sketchy characters", they're software engineers. That's just how people dress in SF.

Even better is to just take BART into town and walk/cab.

Oh, and if you want Asian, goto Nombe. Yum.

Seriously, this needs to happen yesterday. Fucking Slower Than Walking Muni is why I ride a bike around town.

Yup, as a SF resident I can say I don't give a fuck about how much parking meters cost. I use them maybe once a month or two when I get a zipcar to do a few big item errands.

The only people that give a shit about this are people dumb enough to drive from the east bay instead of taking BART. (or caltrain from the peninsula)

Or maybe the people that live in the Marina and haven't figured out that owning a car in a major city is a bad idea.

And SF needs this money. Right now people living here are going to be paying off hundreds of millions for road repairs due to all the car traffic.

I wish they would extend parking meter hours from 6pm to midnight.

6 hours * 6 days a week * 52 weeks * 8200 spaces * $2.50/hour = only $38M/year. That's not going to pay back the bond measure any time soon.

Yes, because it's your god given right to put your 4000+ pound personal possession anywhere you want, any time you want, for however long as you want on crowded publicly paid for city streets.

Sweet! Where on Google can I buy (your) personal information?

I have some of my money go through a non-FDIC credit union. They have a non-federal deposit share insurance provided by http://www.americanshare.com./

Yea, I really need to plan a BWCAW trip this year. No cell service for a week is great.

Wrong, skin effect is related to frequency. There is almost no skin effect at 60hz, or even that much effect on audible frequencies in the 20khz range.
