BART

Well, I just learned that the BART system is going to replace the current, ratty-tatty cloth seats on the BART trains, with, well, *new* cloth seats. Does anyone else think that the BART trains would be cleaner if the seats were hard plastic, like the seats that are on MUNI buses? Wouldn't BART employees be able to clean BART trains more easily if they didn't have to clean fabric?

Yes, but then it would be SO LOUD. It's already super loud with the crappy carpeting and fabric seats, I can't bear to think what the volume would be in the tunnel if everything was plastic.


Either that, or BART is cutting some deal with a huge carpeting/upholstering company.
