Brain rush

Far be it from me to tell Americans what to do from a European perspective, but when I was answering a comment just now, I had a brain rush: the larger Detroit area should get an S-Bahn! Money might come from the stimulus package. A polycentric S-Bahn system as in the Ruhr area would probably work very well there.-

The contact form at whitehouse.gov wants a US zip code, or I'd drop the idea there and think of something else that's closer to my immediate concerns. Any idea where to best drop that idea off so it gets heard? [livejournal.com profile] cracicotus (<=expert) or [livejournal.com profile] ceitfianna (<= person because of whose mention of Ann Arbor I spent part of my morning reading up on those places)? Any idea what the best place would be to dump the concept of Detroit/S-Bahn OTP?

Album cover meme -- as seen around; plus peeve of the day

1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit "random" or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotations Page and select "random quotations" or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to Flickr and click on "explore the last seven days" or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together:




And now, a little grumble... )
