Hi everyone,

I believe this is the site that Myfanwy was referring to:

If you'd like to read the article about the site it is:
http://news.cs.cmu.edu/article.php?a=2272

The site to upload photos can be found at: http://rodasproject.org/#/

I already placed repair requests at all four of the other sites mentioned.
I hope we can get a timely response from the city pothole team...I'm really
looking forward to "The Throwing of the Sharp and Pointy Things!

 Libby
