Epic Slowness

Just outside Beijing there's a highway that's experiencing a bit of traffic.  In fact, the traffic jam just hit its ninth day.  Nine days of traffic - and you thought your commute was bad.

Speaking of slowness, I know I haven't posted in a while.  You hear it on blogs all the time, but I've been super busy at work.  And after this week I'm off to a much needed vacation in Europe.  I hope to see some shining examples of transit and urban infrastructure while I'm there - and I might have a chance to post some of it here while I'm over there.  But fair warning, I'm k-k-kinda busy.
