Nice that the folks in Boston gather together for a bake sale to recommend that their "T" be funded by the folks throughout the state, most of whom do NOT use the thing. I haven't had a pay increase in 5 years, in fact, my pay has gone down! I've had to learn to live on less. The T employees can do the same. Why can't they receive a pay cut? So many of the rest of us have.

This blog is lame - where are actual discussions from people at the transportation agencies talking about various issues and having postings we can talk to them about.

If I wanted to get reposting of news I will go to the news media. I expect to be able to have information and conversations here not more BS press releases.

Hey Transportation Folks - take a look at the Public Health blog - they get it - that's why you people are in such trouble you don't listen!
