Line ride from Charles/MGH back to their car in South Boston. They had
more
than $10 on each of their cards, but the station gates failed to open,
displaying an "expired'' message.
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to trap people /inside/ the Boston metro
system...?

Charlie doesn't work that way IIRC - it's only read on entry. To get
out there's an uncontrolled turnstile type thingie
Even if they put the fare up while you are travelling?
