I believe what was tried in the past was dial-a-ride service, where you could call in and get a ride from anywhere to anywhere. That was expensive. This is much more limited. There’s no need for a bank of phone operators who you can call, because you can get on at only three points. It’s really good only for getting home from the malls or from BART, unlike dial-a-ride, which is good for getting anywhere. On the other hand, it’s a lot less expensive to run per trip.

Liz, I admit that I’m not a graphic artist. And, in fact, I don’t even have PhotoShop on my computer. No matter how I tried, white stuff keeps showing up around the margins of the cap. I attempted to clean it up a little, so I hope it meets with your approval now.

What about this 70s experiment? Can you tell me what you know about it?

Bad PhotoShop on that bus with the cap…

AC tried this in the 70s. It didn’t work so well.

This had been tried before on a section of the 376 route in Richmond.

It is a good idea for getting people home from a transfer point. It will not work so well going from home to the transfer point.

Line 333 sounds great. What do the actual passengers say? Would it work in the daytime?
