 But there will always be _some_ drivers that need access to downtown
 and parking there.  My favorite scheme is to systematically eliminate
 downtown parking spaces, on- and off-street, until the desired
 result is achieved.  Those who had to pass through would be able to
 do so, with less obstruction than now, and those who really had to
 park (not those who would merely like to park) downtown would still
 find space, although at a price.  Our much maligned towing companies,
 plus a bit more enforcing in no-stop zones, would clean away a lot of
 the system-buckers.
