GPS on Buses Formerly Known as Greenies

The Observer reports today that Case and Standard Parking are updating the Greenies by making them blue ("Case Blue" I would assume) and adding GPS tracking. Starting on the first-day-of-class for the Spring 2006 semester, riders will see info screens at the stops with the "time to next bus" and "type of bus" displayed.

This is all fine and good, but I won't deem the project a success unless it reduces the number of people who get on the wrong bus from the Village and try to get off the bus at non-scheduled stops.

They aren't green now; do you think people will stop calling them Greenies? After all, "Bluies" doesn't have quite the same ring to it.
