No Conspiracy Theories, Please!

It has been brought to our attention that some readers might wonder if the use of an image incorporating a parking meter in our last two postings about downtown parking betrays a bias on our part towards the devices. Rest assured, the official position of the BIA and virtually every other stakeholder group remains opposition to on street metering (pay stations, of course, being merely a high-tech update of that old standard) at this time. The selection of those particular images was not intended to supplement (or, actually, to contradict!) the accompanying text.
