Special event preparation: time is running out The special events season is upon us again, and you know what that means. Time to study the schedules, make your traffic flow chart, get your escape routes planned, and get all your supplies in before towering waves of tourists break over the city and flood the hotels. The ending of winter and the beginning of spring heralds a seasonal visit upon our lands, not unlike a plague of locusts, if locusts liked overpriced T-shirts and humorous beer can cozies. The wise resident prepares for this touristial downpour so that he can hold out until April without suffering more than a few broken windows and some tree damage.
This won't be of much interest to you if you've never lived near a racetrack or other focal point for seasonal tourist jihads, but you'll probably get the idea...
