Do the Muni Metro faregates accept tokens directly? I hadn't realized
that.
In any case, I expect the only way to find out is to try it.
Of course, most tokens are probably accepted on buses, and for that
there is visual inspection.
Although I suppose tokens are reusable (and thus less environmentally
damaging as well as less expensive in the long term for the transit
agency), tickets fit more easily into my wallet...
