Headline in today's N.Y. Times:
'New Subway Fare Gates and Platform Barriers Fail to Impress New Yorkers'
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/30/nyregion/subway-mta-fare-gates.html
New Yorkers were asked what they thought. Their response?
'I'm on the fence about the gates, but the barriers are fair'
'The gates I feel are excellent, but the fare is too high'
'The fare is poor, the platform is ok'
'The gates don't impress me as much as the barriers, which are fair'
'The barriers are not fair, the gates are not fair, life isn't fair. Deal with it!'
