A few words on fish, and on public transit

Even though I do not ride the subway (nor the bus!), I appreciate the benefits that public transit brings to many New Yorkers. It brings Anna and Salim safely back home each evening; it ensures that the tasty chicken-flavored drops I enjoy twice each week make their way to me; and the subway means more fish.



Yes, more fish: old subway cars form offshore reefs, which promote fish communities. This leads to more dense populations of fish, and to more easily caught fish! All this in turn winds up in a small tin that empties into a small porcelain dish, and that dish is mine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
