20 Things I Learned After Moving to Los Angeles

Over 4 years in since my move to the City of Angels, and I've learned a few things to share with you, dear reader.

1. 60 degrees will absolutely feel cold. 
My first couple weeks settling into LA, the temperatures hovered in the mid-60s with clouds, and I thought it was pleasant, even while people outside wore sweatshirts and generally looked cold. It didn’t take long for me to acclimate, however, and soon I became one of those laughable Angelenos who complains bitterly about how cold it is when the temperatures drop below what would otherwise be a normal Midwest spring or fall high temperature.

Comment on the proposed Mobility Plan

Just offered the public comment below to the city's proposed new Mobility Plan. There's lots of good stuff in the plan, and also lots to critique. I decided to go after, in particular, the plan for a "Vehicle Enhanced Network." Just read the comment and lemme know your thoughts!
