Comments off | Comentarios desactivados
I have long expected to delete spam comments whenever I log onto transitophile. I don’t expect to delete more than five hundred such comments in a single day. Recently, I’ve had to. An AI spambot has likely discovered this blog, perhaps with human help or, as plausibly, all by itself. Nothing personal. Security tools have…
Rail tourist trips in Central Europe
I’ve taken my share in the past several years, from or to Sofia, Plovdiv, Vaduz, Luxembourg City, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Bratislava and whistlestops inbetween. I write to share what I’ve learned. PUNCTUALITY PROBLEMS An Achilles heel, and not one I’ve read much about in web sites geared toward tourists. I am immensely fond of these rail…
Viajes turísticos en tren por Europa Central
He tomado mi parte de estos en los últimos años, desde o hacia Sofía, Plovdiv, Vaduz, Luxemburgo, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Bratislava y paradas intermedias. Escribo para compartir lo que he aprendido. PROBLEMAS DE PUNTUALIDAD Un talón de Aquiles, y uno sobre el que no he leído mucho en sitios web dirigidos a turistas. Me encantan estos…

The writing took eight months. Unimpressed readers may encourage me to…
Índigo: mi nueva novela
No esperaba escribir otra novela después de Brothers of the Milky Way, pero los elementos esenciales de la trama de Índigo surgieron de la nada en un momento de inspiración inusual el pasado diciembre, y no pude resistirme al reto de una historia llave en mano. La escritura me llevó ocho meses. Los lectores poco…
Transit-Oriented Development: The Big Downside …
… is, unquestionably, the proximity-to-neighbors issue, particularly related to noise. I’ve lived in TOD housing long enough to write confidently that no other drawback comes close. I don’t have this problem now (fingers crossed, knock on wood), but have in the past and could have it again. I didn’t make room for it in last…
Desarrollo orientado al tránsito: la gran desventaja …
… se trata, sin duda, de cuestiones de proximidad a los vecinos, especialmente relacionadas con el ruido. He vivido en viviendas DOT el tiempo suficiente para escribir con confianza que no hay ningún otro inconveniente que se le acerque. No tengo este problema ahora (cruzo los dedos, toco madera), pero sí lo he tenido en…
Is Trump Wholly Sane?
I don’t think so. This is the point I now usually make first when Spaniards ask me about U.S. politics. I first questioned Trump’s sanity while reading his Truth Social feed and watching his June address at Fort Bragg, grow ever more confident in my opinion. The world’s most powerful human navigates life with a…
