cars are stupid.

Honestly, Franklin St. only gets shut-down like 3 times a year. FestiFall, 
Halloween & Apple Chill.  Is it really that much of an incovenience?  They do 
need to manage the incoming traffic.  Like putting flashing signs on 15/501 
telling drivers Apple Chill today, Franklin St. Shut-down, expect HUGE 
FUCKING 
delays, Use Park & ride.  

I'm not completely unbiased on the issue since my fiance' is compelled to 
make 
gobs of great pottery and Apple Chill is a convenient place to unload them 
and 
help defray the cost of her addiction.

I didn't have much trouble getting around the traffic from Carrboro by using 
estes, umstead and airport rd to pick her up (took me 7 min).  Also, one 
could 
park in carrboro walk to downtown BW3 in ~15-20min.  That assumes that one 
knew that apple chill is going on and avoided downtown ch like a plague.
