My coworker/friend, Jose, was involved in a horrible accident Friday. Be safe out there: http://www.komonews.com/news/local/51097342.html

He's now in stable condition and signs are looking up, but he's still got a ways to go. Think good thoughts.

Wow, i'm sure Komo would write "A woman was raped last Friday after using passive voice to write news articles."

The cyclist didn't hit the van, the van hit the fucking cyclist.

I did a thing I told myself I wasn't going to to again and I read the comment thread, it was borderline refreshing
Yes, there's the normal crowd of jackass (or threatening) motorists that demand bikers on the sidewalk and even a few of our virulent representatives - but fewer of both groups
Overall, there seems to be more people saying "look, this is a problem for the bikers and the cars, everybody try to play safe"
I gotta say, either the trolls are getting bored or people are finally getting the message.
Mnah, next comment thread on a biker accident article will be more of the same. Better reserve optimism for now.
