I know you guys have to deal with a lot of BS on this forum, but let's
not get too touchy.  I was simply concerned sure that the rights of
non-residents were being considered - especially commuters who may
have no alternative but to walk a long detour, while many, if not
most, residents may have the option of driving.  Since the subway is
only being closed at night, it seems a fair solution for anyone.

OBSID is doing a great job.  I just want the odd bit of reassurance
occasionally that honest non-residents are taken into consideration -
and btw, that doesn't imply that I think they aren't.
