[*BCM*] Critical Mass Boston Globe feature story

[turtle]

FYI there was a pretty good feature article about CM in the Globe
about 5 years ago that you might want to check out.  I imagine that
not much has changed about CM since then, so it might be useful to
read it and find some interesting tangent to take for a more in-depth
and interesting story than the informative, but dull, story that's
been done already.
