Boulder needs a night bus service
Oct 12th
Night Bus service England
For 40 years I have been writing to the city of Boulder about having a
Night bus service. This is a service that would run every hour to select bus stops all over the entire city from midnight to 5:00 am when the regular buses start. It would help students and others from being stranded in the middle of the night. It would only take one or two buses.
I used this service when I lived in Great Britain. It is called the Green Line Night bus service. It begins at 11:00 pm and stops at 5:30 am
A Boulder green line could use 2 buses and run all over the city in a 1 hour loop and comes every hour to each stop.
It would run all the way to Gunbarrel, north Boulder, Table Mesa, where ever a bus goes. It would skip stops and have specific Green line stops .
This is good so people do not get stranded in the middle of the night when the buses stop including weekends
High density and urbanization mean death to Boulder

High Density Creates Una
ffordability: The tax foundation has just released an analysis showing where you get the best bang for your buck in the US by comparing the relative value of $100. I’ve written about this before, but allow me to reiterate the point. We pay more for everything in Boulder-not just housing. $100 gives you just $90.84 cents of buying power in Boulder County. (I guarantee you it’s even less in the city proper). Compare that to Grand Junction where $100 gives you $105 of buying power. Colorado is the 10th most expensive state in the country.

High density cities charge more for goods and services than any other place in the nation.
We are in WWIII : a cyber war
Oct 10th
The Next WAR will be a cyber war with Russia China and other cyber criminals. We are in WWIII right now…. oh you thought it was later? No it is now and we are losing…. Edward Snowden with concern about CIA spying on you and me but he missed the big picture; Russian, China and the rest of the cyber criminals.
