I think its a great idea- and the areas you mentioned above should have them in dedicated places. Having taxi stands is just another ticked box in the quest for us to have a *world class* city.

Well, if we were really "world class" there'd be enough taxis driving around for everybody to be able to just hail one off the street like normal. Seattle needs about 250 more medallions.

44% in Seattle typically have more than 2 drinks when they drink alcohol; 34% of men usually have more than 4 drinks.

Okay...

40% of men and 24% of women binge drink at least once a month.

...and that's more than 5 drinks, right?

I think "binge drinking" implies (or connotes?) something more extreme than six drinks over what might be a six-hour evening of drinking. I think this use of the term tends to be misleading.

Drinking statistics are always compiled by anti-pleasure zealots with an agenda of proving that everybody's an alcoholic.

God damn it! Pioneer Square didn't have a cabstand before? What the hell took so long?

Where there be drunks, there should be cabstands.
