may i see your ID please?

as if the problems with picking up students has been solved.

apparently ucsd transportation thinks that the whole problem (people complaining how the shuttles are always full and they can never get to school --- hence a reason to ditch entirely) is because a bunch of non-ucsd students get on the bus to get to ucsd, and hence filling up spaces that ucsd students could use.

can people be anymore stupid?

think about it. if it weren't for classes, people would rather NOT go to school. why in the world would anyone wants to go to ucsd just for fun? i don't know what kind of fetish that would be, but i would rather sleep in and not go to school if i can.

so to fix this problem, ucsd shuttle drivers are now enforcing showing IDs when people get on the bus.

um, this isn't gonna fix anything. the number of students who need shuttle service to get to school is overwhelming, sometimes getting to the bus stop two hours early does not even guarantee you a seat in the bus. unless, of course, you be like me and drive your car to the first shuttle stop. everyone should know there is a lacking of buses and drivers if after one-bus-per-seven-minutes system is used, EVERY SINGLE bus still gets filled up after the first three stops (there are twelve total).

i say take out the campus loop. they're not any useful anyway. it takes you the SAME AMOUNT OF TIME OR LESS to walk from one end of campus to the other than to take the shuttle. from my experience, it takes MORE time to use the loop shuttle. why? well, first of all, you have to be there early. say like 5 minutes early. but then you never know if the shuttle's gonna get theree earlier than scheduled or not because there is supposed to be one every 15 minutes. and if you miss one, you'll have to wait another 15 minutes. so for safety, you get there 10 minutes early and wait for 10 minutes. then the shuttle comes. you get on it, and it takes about 7 minutes to get to where you want to go. you hop off the shuttle, and it takes you about 3 minutes to walk to your class. this sums up to 20 minutes.

if you walk, it takes you 10 minutes. no time wasted waiting. everyone could use a little more exercise these days anyway, everyone's getting too obese. besides, what kind of logic does a person have if he goes to gym everyday to get in shape but is too lazy to walk from class to class?

enough complaining, i should be paying attention to what dubin is saying.

wtf, fourier transform to solve pde?
