Hi,
I'm Todd, I lived mostly in Manhattan from 1996-1999. I worked on
communications for the 1997 NYC Sierra Club Film Festival and was quite
involved in community garden defense in 1997 and 1998. My dogs are from
the East Village, and I live in Prague now. My other NYC Streets project
is "Dogs on Board!".
As I told Arcady (or all of the administrators, so forgive me if the
following is redundant....)... Well, actually, Arcady, could you post
what I wrote as introduction?
Then I will add more later. I am actually working on a proposal right
now for this:
<http://www.skoda.cz/en/skoda-holding/news/introducing-a-new-type-of-tram-the-100-low-floor-vehicle-skoda-forcity-aid2454.html>
to have a multi-function space.
Prague Public Transport is a partner in my project
<http://greenideafactory.blogspot.com/2008/03/bikes-on-board-14.html>.
More on that if you want more, otherwise I will just talk about NYC...
promise.
