A week between posts. Hoo boy. Better throw some links up so you guys don't lost interest.
# I've had this story lying around for a while. It's about this guy in Watertown that found a suitcase full of old photographs on the curb in a pile of garbage. Turns out, they were photographs of Hiroshima after we dropped the atomic bomb, which no one knew existed. It's a nice piece about how visual images help to form historic consciousness.
# This guy is amazing. And a hero.
# This is how light rail is going to take root in big cities that aren't accustomed to public transportation: an interactive map that shows you where the bars along the route are. This one could be a little more dynamic (more information via e-mail? Meh!), but I like the idea!
# A slideshow from Slate of the most gerrymandered congressional districts in America. It's a sad state of affairs when an objectively weird-shaped district, like my former one, doesn't make the list, and I can't even complain.
# Finally, in honor of Inauguration Day, here's the car that follows President Obama's limo. Incredible.
