Folks want to save some time (driving in HOV lanes) and money (sharing driving costs) while they help the envoronment. But there is the rideshare dilemma of personal safety concern, compatibility and spontaneity. ZoomPool.com took on the challenge to resolve these issues about a year ago. We have the solutions - we do thorough background checks on all members and rank matches on personal compatibility factors like smoking, conversation level, and music preferences. The finances are handled automatically at the back end so all drivers get fair compensation. We will be a Bay area, CA only company till we get excellent density of carpool options, whether going to work or needing one time trips like getting to the airport. Launch is planned for April - I can keep you informed if you are interested if you send me a note to info@zoompool.com.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-855016227010072973.post-55701726422761898662009-02-19T11:46:00.000-05:002009-02-19T11:46:00.000-05:00When I lived in Alabama I carpooled to work for ab...When I lived in Alabama I carpooled to work for about a month. The drive was about 40 miles each way. My carpool mates listened to a radio station that talked about Auburn and Alabama football every day. The daily conversation also centered around this topic. I lasted a week and decided I'd rather have peace and quiet.Coreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294937394397021875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-855016227010072973.post-38901210510894298562009-02-19T11:42:00.000-05:002009-02-19T11:42:00.000-05:00I think it (the boxspring) was 53" at it's widest ...I think it (the boxspring) was 53" at it's widest point and only had a couple to spare in the window frame.
