Yep, they were asking about the GL ‘grade level’ ped crossing at Park St.

Wires are overhead, no third rail.

The taxidermy exhibit is hilariously bad. I love it.

I was part of the initial wave of permanent bans on this sub after publicly disagreeing with this rule.
I few minutes ago, I was (seemingly?) unbanned and “temporarily muted” on this sub. Please let me know if this post is visible as I am unsure what the mechanics of a mute are.

I look forward to discussing a path forward towards restoring a degree of trust in the moderation of this community.
That said, until at he abuse of power demonstrated here in the last day has been meaningfully addressed, I will be remaining unsubscribed and will work to contribute to r/camberville
As things stand currently, I believe that the mod here should work with the community to onboard a mod team in line with the ethos of Cambridge and then gracefully step down.

Reply to comment by artificial_bluebird in Since bike related posts are now banned on this sub, what are your favorite car related facts? by hopefulcynicist
Umm, excuse me. This post is about cars. No need to bring bikes into it - that’s against the rules here.

Not a one person problem for sure, but if this guy comes in with an actual agenda he can publicly call out / turn the screws on the legislature.
Some public/official finger pointing back at the legislature is long overdue.
