I've never had a SmarTrip card. But I doubt it contains any
information a regular farecard doesn't. The only reason I haven't
gotten one is because I don't want to spend an extra five dollars.
And because I haven't yet used up the several $44 farecards I bought
for $40 each on the last day before they eliminated the 10% bonus.
I might eventually buy one, as I'm tired of farecards being ruined by
the rain, and of having to go to Metro Center once a year or so to
trade in all my ruined farecards and farecards with a few cents left
on them, while putting up with the lecture about what a big one-time
favor they're doing me by letting me do this.
