DDOT Director Gabe Klein introduces a new solar powered, coin and credit card accepting parking meter, part of a new pilot program. Other options being tested include a pay-by-phone program.
"In a world dominated by efficiency, each development would serve only narrow and practical purposes. Beauty, creativity, fantasy, enjoyment, inspiration, and poetry would fall by the wayside, creating an unappealing world indeed. Imagine a fully efficient world: an Italian dinner would be a red pill and a glass of water with an artificial aroma. Mozart would hit the piano with a two-by-four. Van Gogh would use one color. Whitman's sprawling 'Song of Myself' would fit on a single page. And what about efficient sex? An efficient world is not one we envision as delightful. In contrast, it is downright parsimonious"
