This is near and dear to my heart these days.

I would highly recommend The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot if you to get emotionally invested in why investing in medical research, cancer or whatever, and approaching it ethically is so damn import.

I got to the T7 shuttle pick-up area at 2:45pm last Tuesday. I waited abt 45 minutes for a shuttle that had just enough room to squeeze me in. In that time, I saw what felt like 30+ shuttles for both LAXit and FlyAway that were all mostly empty. Hope that data helps!

And I understand that the shuttle is a stopgap until the people mover opens, but so is every other shuttle system which goes frequently. Not sure if this would be on Metro or LAWA to fix, but I hope it is addressed.

I went to check out the station on my way back from a trip! The station itself is lovely, but one shuttle every 10 min is nowhere near where it needs to be to support the level of ridership this station gets. I had to wait for 3 jam-packed shuttles to go by before one had space to pick me up at T7.

I tested this out and it’s fantastic! No more breaking grids before plunging. Every facility should have these.

I printed with PLA for use with Pelco easyGlow and tested with Ultraufoil grids.

Good idea! I’ll look into setting that up soon.

Thanks for the kind words! I was a big fan of the bot and distinctly remember when Twitter’s API policy changed. Thanks for your original work, and I’m glad I can help restore this service to the community.
