Telecommuting City

Or biking, or walking. The New Mexico Business Weekly is reporting on Mayor Marty's latest environmental salvo, the Clean Air Challenge 2008. I, for one, think it's great that the city is actively trying to encourage non-driving alternatives, including working with companies to encourage flexible work arrangements and telecommuting.

It cracks me up just a tiny, little bit that one of the program's sponsors is the French Mortuary -- I'm not sure I want them picking up corpses using the Zip Car that I will later sign up to use.

Perhaps I'm superstitious. Or perhaps that's not quite what they have in mind.

We can only hope.
