Green Lane Hill Leaves Big Trucks in Identity Crisis

About 300 cars were backed up at the Silverwood Street stop sign last Thursday waiting for a Trash Truck to remember if it had an engine or not. 

Paul Stangood, the 299th car, stepped out of his vehicle and onto the sandy Jerusalem dune's, setup a telescope and phoned ahead to his buddy in Manayunk on a Satellite Phone to figure out just what the hold up was. 

"Ahh it looks like a Trash Truck can't make it up the hill. Then there's another Truck trying to pass, not sure if that one knows if it has a steering wheel or not." 

...

UPDATE: Paul Stangood, 89, died today of old age. The truck remains on Green Lane.
