There are some unhappy campers out there. We do try and find positive blog entries about the T but what comes up in the searches is what comes up....a recent sample
Allison e-mailed me about her blog entry
I posted a story about my experience on the MBTA bus with a careless driver that slammed on the brakes (several times) causing people to fall and I've got a huge bruise on my leg now because of this:Landed in Swampscott tells us about morning entertainment only the T can provide

Regarding the BadTransit post about credit card usage limits at FVMs:
At Davis Square station a couple of days ago, I met a Tufts University instructor who was trying to buy 30 $6 CharlieTickets for use by her students in a class project. The students were to take four bus rides to various parts of Somerville.
However, the machines only let her use her credit card four times, and she had to buy the rest of the tickets with cash. I don't understand why there would be a $24 limit on the use of a credit card.
What a pain.
At least the machines let you buy up to 4 daily or weekly passes in a single transaction.
