    Join Us: Bus and "L" Espionage

    Posted Aug. 5 at 8 a.m.

    Cue the dramatic music, usher in the beautiful Bond girls and cue the double "O."

    It's time to engage in a little bus and "L" espionage. 

    Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to join "Going Public" in its ongoing online mission to shed light on the troubles and triumphs of the CTA.  I get so many great photos and insights from riders all over the city that I'd like them to get the credit -- and some shine-- for their hard work.

    So here's what you need to do, besides immediately delete this posting before it self-destructs.  Send an e-mail to goingpublic@tribune.com titled "CTA Spy" and include the following:

    Preferred Code Name:
    Age:
    Neighborhood:
    Frequent Rider Of:
    What I Loathe about CTA:
    What I Love About CTA:

    Photos are welcome, and if you're shy, feel free to create your own CTA spy costume and take a pic in that.  This week, I'll start unveiling members of my spy network, so send those e-mails to me.  We'll make the next Bond film -- "Quantum of Solace"-- look like Spy Kids by comparison.
