That's not necessarily the case. For example: If you have 10[s] (units of space) in your knapsack, and you have 3 items in front of you the first with two with 5[s] and 4[v] (units of value) each, and the third with 6[s] and 7[v], the

I've heard about this before but never seen it in writing, thanks. It is pretty neat. Do other cities not have the same?

Their prices are actually pretty low in Houston, lower than I expected. E.g. Bellaire to Downtown $12-$17; Clear Lake to Downtown, $28-$37 estimate. Not that bad. I could see myself (and other people) using it, even for crosstown trips. Ed
