every year, too, lately. They claimed that ridership was down because of the recession (really?? all those folks whose cars got repoed???) and so they cut routes and cut buses and now it's next to impossible to get anywhere in under an hour except for weekday morning and evening rush hour. And they apparently think nobody works or shops on weekends.
