they’re all being covered widely. the Vance item here comes from an interview with NYT itself! but that’s part of the problem: when you average three disqualifying things per day, it’s hard for any one of them to break through and dominate a news cycle.

“But how can nondrivers access rural communities?” I get this question a lot. One idea? Off road multiuse trails that parallel rural highways. I saw a bunch of bike commuters (& a trike!) on the Latah Trail this morning between Moscow, ID and Pullman, WA. Without this trail? No access.
