IN CAHOOTS?

I think Miami-Dade Transit has a sweetheart deal with South Florida dermatologists. Think about it. Miami has thousands of unshaded bus benches sitting in treeless areas. At the same time most of their busses or trolleys have erratic schedules. So many of the commuters waiting for busses have no shade and sit in the blazing sun for as long as 45 minutes. Many do this every day. I don't need to tell you that that exposes those commuters to the dangers of skin cancer. And when they spot that suspicious mole, sore or rash, where do they go? The dermy, of course, who, it seems to me, gets a lot more business because of Metro-Dade Transit than even the beaches. At the beaches people expect to use sun block, but not so much when you're just waiting or a bus to go work. Hmmm. I wonder when they arranged this deal.
