When You Go To Santa Cruz, Be Sure To Take The SolTrain
Mercury News reports that the future of mass transit is in Santa Cruz County, California:
As Silicon Valley bemoans falling ridership on its light-rail system, Santa Cruz County is quietly becoming an incubator for Jetsons-like 21st-century transportation systems. Grass-roots groups say they've seen the future of public transit -- and it's not near the chips. It's near the beach.
The SolTrain would be a solar-powered ultra-light rail train. Designed to run on normal-gauge track, this single-cab train would carry around 20 people.
And it may become a reality. The SolTrain group is presenting a plan to the county's Regional Transportation Commission to use the SolTrain for a proposed tourist line.

That headline is the biggest stretch of an adapted lyric I've ever seen.
So I assume every post regarding the SF area will have the "If you're going to ____, Be sure to ____" format?
What about "I left my ____ in ____"?
Or "Do you know the way to _____"?
Or "Seventy-Three men sailed out, from the _______ Bay"?
Or even just "The ________ Treat"?
If you want creativity, go elsewhere. There's a reason I wouldn't make a good editor, and my inability to write creative headlines is it.
