Safety Myths

Yes, its true, there are SOME myths about safety. (I know, hard to believe.) Found one today. A a frequent traveler, I have heard that your 'Identity Safety' is at risk because the magnetic strip on hotel key card contain personal information - including your credit card. So, I did some checking ... according to Snopes, this is FALSE. But it does bring up the issue of identity theft and the need to Bsafe with your personal information. So - Bsafe.

Big Brother

Personal safety ... or is it security? Saw a news story highlighting Surveillance Cameras being posted in Denver for security reasons during the DNC and the ACLU was concerned about personal privacy. It raised another thought about the Clear locations in airports across the country and the questions about how much privacy we REALLY have from 'the man'. But - I'll ask the confrontational question - if your not doing anything wrong, who cares who is watching?

#1 Concern

It's nice to know safety is not just my concern! Good ole RTD cares. Save gas, ride the train. And, Bsafe.

Bsafe

Its quite a phrase "Be Safe" ... it can mean so many things. So often, it is me saying to others as we depart but just the other day ... someone said it to me. And I stopped to smile. Maybe, just maybe - my obsessiveness might have made a difference in thinking twice about their choices. On another note, I saw a pretty compelling ad campaign while at the Social Marketing Conference in Clearwater, FL ... in my eyes, it disputes those that say scare tactics are effective. The Irish Seat Belt makes you think. Bsafe.
