Changing people's behavior is so inexpensive compared to oilfield development, and it leads to predictable savings.

Employers! Why do you have everyone come in and go home at the same time?

Staggering your operations can often lead to savings for your operations.

An early shift can be at the job before rush hour, savine them time and money.

A late shift can complete the tasks started by the first shift! Everybody saves when you move your employee's commute to non rush-hour!

It's a lovely day for riding the bus and my drivers have been so nice! The 22 Clark, by the by, was PACKED yesterday midday. It was good to see that many people riding, though I would have liked a seat. Oh, and the excited talkative guy that just got off the 250 bus was a rare treat! :-D
