Dearest Martha,
Indications are very strong that we shall move in a few days, perhaps tomorrow. Lest I should not be able to write you again, I feel impelled to write a few lines should this congestion not unclog.

A thrifty, open-source solution for calming traffic:
* Paint hand cart with bright colors.
* (optional) apply clear reflective spray paint.
* Place a concrete block on the cart and roll it into position where you want to calm traffic.

Billings, MT crossing guard Linda Walton's bodycam shows some drivers aren't slowing.
The paradox of street design:
If it feels dangerous, it's probably safer.
Drivers likely to slow down if they think the car body will get damaged.
Curvy streets R safer than straight streets.
