No Ben, it's not laziness. It's a principle thing. If the tram
companies can give me a honest and reasonable reason to validate each
time I get on a tram, I might consider it. As I believe it is an
accounting reason, I will not mindlessly do so. And yes, it is
partially a protest against the retrenchment of conductors and their
replacement with a system which is stuffed.
