Hi Evelin
I met you and Jon a few years back when I worked in the schools. I am writing to catch up and see how things are going with the schools and restorative justice efforts.

INTERVIEWREQUEST – I’m a reporter with IEEE Spectrum in New York.
A study coming out in PNAS on Monday (embargo’d until 3pm EST Monday) suggests that real-time, high-capacity ride sharing services could improve urban transportation—in particular, 2,000 10-passenger vehicles or 3,000 four-passenger vehicles could fulfill 98% of Manhattan taxi services with a mean waiting time of 2.8 minutes and a mean trip delay of 3.5 minutes using less than a quarter of the number of vehicles in use as New York City taxies.
Would somebody in the organization be available to comment or share any thoughts? (Ride-sharing services could be things like Uber, Lyft, etc.) — the data analyzed was for New York (not the DC-metro-area) but I’m wondering if it could have any crossover.
