...duty firefighter heard the screams and wrote down the license plate number of the car Wodja was driving, a blue two-door Honda Acura...
Ramirez has taunted the authorities with conflicting clues. He all too obviously left the Honda Civic of his most recent Texas victim, Noemi Dominguez, near the international bridge on the border, indicating he'd fled into Mexico. Yet his suspected depredations also point north of Texas. Last week investigators were dispatched to Gorham, Ill., where George Morber, 80, and his daughter Carolyn Frederick, 52, were found beaten to death. They lived alongside railroad tracks. Ramirez is also wanted for questioning in the 1997 assault and murder of Christopher Maier, 21, a University of Kentucky student, who was slain...
Greenlee will drive home a different silver Honda this evening. His own car, a 1987 Ford Thunderbird, has sat unused in his garage for the past four months. During that time, Greenlee has shared 12 natural-gas Hondas with 60 strangers in an experiment called CarLink. The program is run by researchers at the University of California at Davis, who believe that car sharing can encourage mass-transit use while reducing pollution and traffic. It saves Greenlee money: he pays just $200 a month--covering insurance, fuel and maintenance--to have a Civic for himself at night and on weekends...
...Greenlee arrives at the station, leaves the key to the Honda in a security box and walks to his train. Soon Annemarie Meike and Bill Glassley, a married couple who live in Oakland and commute to Pleasanton, pick up the key and get into the Honda to drive to the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, where both are scientists. In the past they drove the entire way from home to their jobs--60 miles round-trip--because the bus service connecting BART to the lab was slow and unreliable. Now they take BART to Pleasanton and, for $60 a month...
NOON. Glassley and Meike hop into the Honda--which is labeled with an F--to grab a fast lunch. I ask about the annoyance of the other drivers' fiddling with the radio presets. "That's turned out to be a great thing," Meike says. "Every time I get into the car, I discover a new station." While she talks, she dumps hot sauce onto a taco and feeds it to Glassley, taking care not to muss up the seat for the next driver...
