Here's a fun link. I'm not as meme-averse as the Blogger Who Shall Remain Nameless, from whence I was directed to the following, less a quiz than a survey of how many metros around the world you've ridden on. I note, once again, that the world is a very big place and I haven't seen most of it. I debated whether to give myself credit for Milan, but we didn't really ride the Metro there. We took inter-city rail from Milan to Florence, which is not quite the same thing. There are also a few cities where I've ridden non-subway/metro mass transit systems (aka buses). Again, not quite the same thing. Anyway, an interesting thing. It was fun just looking at all the different logos.

Hey, that's a pretty fun website. (Is that function called an "application"?)
I like how it's simultaneously graphic, informative, easy to use, and a provider of an interesting pat on the back.
In any case, I was surprised to realize that I've been on at least fifteen:
Got at b3co.com!
okay well all the grafx from the metro site seem to be broken this morning, even tho they were working fine last night. either they don't like windows or the site's gone kerflooey overnite
site's down -- account suspended
and now it's back (altho apparently it doesn't want to put grafx into phil's comment above). btw, phil it doesn't surprise me at all that you've been on almost as many metro systems as me and H. Trouser combined
Thanks for helping me re-find this blog. I hadn't realized that the "scroll down" from your home page only got the last few entries. I thought it would do all of August. So when I went to July and didn't find it...
In any case, bummer about the site!
And hey -- help me out with a reminder on who H. Trouser is? Said person left me a nice comment yesterday but I've lost track of identity.
