What's the lesson here on the Contrada del Collegio in San Marino? Cities can serve so many more people when cars are left behind. Few realize just how much space our motor vehicles demand. On this uphill climb to the top of Mt. Titano, you could fit a dozen cars or you could turn it over to a hundred pedestrians: no fossil fuel required. [1984]
It’s September 3, so let me say: Happy Birthday, San Marino! This microstate was founded in 301 AD by St. Marinus. Today, it enters its 1,710th year of independence. Not bad for a single mountain peak! From Italy's Rimini Plain, just follow the switch-back road to the top of Mt. Titano and find there: The Most Serene Republic of San Marino. [1984]
