Living in Philly and working in NY, I have a profound appreciation for the metrocard. We don't have this in Philly. You can get monthlies, weeklies, tokens or pay extra and use cash, but we don't have a metrocard equivalent and we have no ticket machines.

I have fantasies about Philly getting a metrocard-like system.

Driving is not a freedom – it’s a responsibility – you must stay alert, stay sober, be on the defense, continually pay more for gas, parking, etc. Cars can be a drag in any season.

Don’t drive yourself to extinction, use your local public transport system. Its recent improvements and expansions are probably described online, so even if it was not convenient the last time you checked, it could be now. Bike to transit, park’n’ride lots and special promotions like those offered by NYC’s MTA take the stress out of getting around in congested areas and make getting there a delight. (via MTA of NYC)
