MoDOT creates blog; asks for comments

The most recent issue of MoDOT's Express Lane includes this interesting news item:

Post Your Commets on MoDOT's New Blog - Check out MoDOT's new blog and voice your own opinion about the latest transportation news at www.modotblog.blogspot.com.

Among the news items there, awaiting comment, are:

• MoDOT Recognized for Protecting Mother Earth - posted in celebration of Earthday, 0 comments as of 4/24.
  
• 78 Percent of Missouri's Major Roads in Good Condition - 2 comments as of 4/24
  
• And several more

It's an interesting and potentially useful way for the department to reach out to citizens. Since they are asking for comments and feedback, we should certainly oblige them!
