Urban Paradoxes

So I know that I forwarded most of you this post "what-if" describing some things that this dude thinks are in need of fixing/changing.

• Which ones do you guys think are the most important?
• Is there anything that you think we are capable of doing to fix any of this?
• Decision-makers to talk to...
• Specific legislation that could be passed (such as is needed for any kind of "regional approach" in Texas"
• Technology that can be implemented?
• Topics the public should be more educated about? (myths to fix, etc.)
• Install monorail service immediately, etc.
  

I think that Austin at least has a head start in many of these things because people are not afraid to "speak up". Yet still, crap happens!
