went the wrong way?
* "Last Clink for Token-Only Turnstiles"
* By Garry Pierre-Pierre, The New York Times, May 14 1997
*
* The last token-only turnstile was ripped out today.
*
* Officials have spent $700 million over a four-year period to automate the
* system, including upgrading the electrical wiring and the computer systems
* to link up the vast network.
*
* Tokens will be eliminated in a year or so.
*
* For years, transit riders and advocates have been demanding discounts like
* other cities, but transit officials said they couldn't do it without an
* electronic system.
*
* In 1995, the Transit Authority lost $300 million in city, state and Federal
* subsidies, and had to reduce and eliminate some bus and subway service,
* along with some cleaning. Not counting the long-promised discounts, the
* city is also offering free bus-subway transfers which will cost it another
* $168 million.
Wow.
They are hurting for money, yet spent $700 million on it to offer discounts?
They aren't expecting to monitor individual users, like in Singapore, are they?
Let's see...they don't print them up in advance, so they can't be stolen.
But each token booth has a video camera, which, if synchronized time-wise
would yield a picture to associate with each card.
They wouldn't use 'machine vision' to identify people, would they?
They would never take our picture from a video camera and use it for a
completely different surveillance purpose, would they?
* "Police Use of Yearbooks Draws Protest From the Schools"
* By Lawrence Van Gelder, The New York Times, March 28 1997
*
* A storm of protest burst yesterday around a Police Department memo that
* orders every detective squad in New York City to collect yearbooks from
* the high schools and junior high schools in its precinct as an aid in
* investigations.
