RTP-area local music and culture

[Jeffrey Herrick <herrickjeffrey AT yahoo.com>]

Since there are supply refined petroleum is limited
this week and our history of burning of petroleum
most-likely helped "fuel" Katrina (fossil fuel burning
-> CO2 -> Warming of Ocean/Gulf Temps -> Big freakin
storm) I'd like put out a reminder that Triangle has
bus systems are available and is way underused.  
Go here for the TTA: http://ridetta.org/
Its a good time as any to try it out

I've had a pretty good experience on TTA.  I ride my
bike to the UNC student center from Carrboro, put my
bike on the bus take it down 54 to the park and ride
my bike up to work.  I've also gotten a around to
between Durham & CH & RTP pretty easily..

TTA also offers Vanpools too..

Also there is a free bus between the UNC planetaruim
and the Duke Chapel.  They have a bike rack too.  All
you need is a Duke or UNC ID, but I've never seen
anyone check.  http://www.robertsonscholars.org/bus/

Don't forget the free buses in Chapel Hill

Hell you can even get between Hillsboro and CH by bus

You can go here and get all the public transportation
options for NC

One more link for the smart commuter challenge going
on now: http://www.smartcommute.org/2005Challenge.htm

I also had this notion of starting a WIKI for people
who want to carpool to rock shows in the triangle. 
Has anyone already done this?  Would anyone really be
interested?  I know there are folks out there more web
savy than I.. so it would probably be ugly in
comparison..

don't wait for a train.
Jeff
