Since when do people not need parking places at night?  My block
(in Baltimore) gets cleaned on Tuesday mornings.  Most people that
live on the block are at work then, so it's not so bad for most people.
I'm unusual and work at home a lot, so I have to be careful to remember
to move the car on Tuesday mornings (I've gotten my share of tickets
when I forgot), but at least on Tuesday mornings there's lot's of other
places to park (since most people in the neighborhood are at work).
It would be a colossal drag if they cleaned our block at night.
