Unfortunately, they neglected to mention that the B-1 surface-lot right next to the parkade charges $4.50 per day instead of $6.00. <br /><br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_svaNPT5Vcko/RvSasD56fuI/AAAAAAAAAAw/0flOwZpaark/s1600-h/DSC00054.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5112881558725492450" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_svaNPT5Vcko/RvSasD56fuI/AAAAAAAAAAw/0flOwZpaark/s320/DSC00054.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>This sign is place all over the UBC campus by UBC Parking to promote FlexPass. FlexPass appears to be a wireless device designed to allow access to some of the parkade. Permission to access various parkades is determined by the prepaid packages that is purchased. Since I don't generally drive to UBC, I don't know much about it. But you could imagine my confusion when I first saw this and immediately I thought of Adobe Flex instead.</div>About Stevenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13779571628533123350noreply@blogger.com
