Given at least once a week I have to help a blind person or a person in a wheel chair navigate an already challenging built environment. And frequently see someone on a bike-share wobbling the wrong way down a hectic Manhattan street into messenger bikes and yellow cabs, I hope the roll out is considered with these people in mind.

- wild_preference 8y agoI tithe half my income to people in need and volunteer about 30 hours per week to the local soup kitchen (would do more but my free time is tied up in Darfur mission work) and I, too, hope NYC will keep the people you help out in mind as well.
- neom 8y agohaaaaaaaahahaha. Ok, fair. I should have said at lease once a month (as that's true) or *often. Thankfully the soup kitchen to support missions in Darfur that I volunteer at 6 days a week only has a small flight of stairs I have to carry the elderly folks up.
