Death and Taxis

Well, looks like someone had a chat with someone and the someones agreed that endcabviolence.com wasn't such a good idea after all: as of today, anyway, the site has been replaced with an ad for doman name seller godaddy.com.

Meanwhile, cabbie rag Chicago Dispatcher has put up a web page of its own: StopKillingChicagoCabdrivers.com.

Visitors to that site will notice, alongside a long and depressing list of cabbies killed in recent years, that the Dispatcher has a regular radio show called ... "Are You Talkin' To Me." Which normally would be a pretty stale reference, but somehow in this context it's actually sort of funny.
