Unfortunately, Baldwin Street is way on the east side, not the west where the UW sits. I don't visit Madison as much as I'd like, but finding Fair Trade coffee near campus is never a worry. In fact, when the first town in America becomes a Fair Trade one, it's likely to be Madison. It's a very progressive place. That’s right off of Washington Avenue, a street I used to live on.

It sounds kinda Berkeley-ish. For all of SoCal's blue pride, I often get the sense LA isn't all that progressive. Or maybe just more contradictory. People buy organic produce, then cart their groceries home in their SUVs. Interesting about Madison. It sounds kinda Berkeley-ish.

Our solution to long-term transportation planning is uni-dimensional: more freeways. So, I'd give them some credit. In these times, it's better than nothing.
