In all fairness

The T was doing a pretty good job encouraging car ownership before they introduced thier muzak.

T to Catholic girls: You start much too late

Robert David Sullivan reports hearing Billy Joel's "Only the Good Die Young" blaring from loudspeakers at North Station:

... I was offended more by the banality of the music than by any moral message therein, but I ask Bill Donahue and the Catholic League: Doesn't this make you want to join the fight against the commercialization of public spaces? (But lay off the live subway musicians, please.)
