A full week after the snowstorm in #philly, the proportion of cars parked along the street, whose owners have not even attempted to dig them out, is highly interesting from an urban planning perspective

@aburka Count me among them. I usually only drive once or twice a week, but I have to dig out today to get groceries, as soon as I can convince myself to get some street clothes and boots on.
@linuxandyarn and I'm not criticizing you (I also drive a car, though I'm lucky to have off street parking at the moment), we're a product of the design of the city, but... a better world is possible
@aburka When I still worked in an office I commuted by SEPTA, but I need the car for shopping and family, especially since my wife has to use a walker or sometimes a wheelchair to go out (and her relatives are in New York). Sadly, paratransit is a joke: twice the cost of a bus and less than a quarter as reliable.
