I'd like to see what happens whenever you visit Chicago.

Now, if your project had been entitled "Book of Enema," then it could have been all about SEPTA, our glorious public transit system here in Killadelphia

When I showed this video to about 10 people from Philadelphia, they were all laughing in a knowing laugh. They all said that everyone knows the train system is messed up. Visitors to the city have no clue.

Steve that was Hilarious. I know my city is in a sad state of affairs when it comes to the transit system, but having it shown like this was awesome. I forwarded it to a bunch of coworkers, this is gold.

Steve this was great- I had just finished telling my husband about the guy in the booth who takes the money when I came across your video, perfect! Was terrific meeting you!

Steve, sorry man. But it was nice to meet you. Hopefully we can hang out longer next time. You are almost a funny guy.

While in Philly for the podcamp I rode on a commuter train, a subway train and an underground trolley. All rides $2.00. Seems no matter where you go it is $2.00. Coming from the DC metro (subway) system this seems like a total ripoff -- especially for people like me who were only going two stops.

The underground trolley was the most scary and strange, but the whole system seems confusing and unplanned.

Thankfully, I had 20 one dollar bills with me so I was set, but it surely is a bizarre system!
