In addition to Ride Your Big Wheel to Work Day, tomorrow, May 15, is also Spare the Air Day. But here's the nasty rub: there will be no free transit. Pft. How dare Bay Area citizens not receive a free ride tomorrow. The nerve. This makes little sense. Especially since we are asked to celebrate Spare the Air Day by driving less, taking public transportation, performing something somewhat orgasmic sounding called "trip-linking," walking, biking,......

Tonight, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District has asked you, the Bay Area, to drive less as well as holding off on burning wood in fireplaces and woodstoves, which are a large contributor to airtime pollution level. (You hear that, Zuni Cafe and Chez Panisse, you depraved, Hummer-loving, slow-food bastards.) Read more about it here. Also, there's no free transit during winter/fall Spare the Air days. Bummer.......
