Here we FOUR, count 'em, FOUR separate systems, all incompatible with each other. I'm not sure WHAT Light Rail in the south bay area is for except to keep its employees eating.

Oh! That's right! The rail goes right by property the mayor who was in office when it was planned owned. Made a pretty penny, he did. The train cars, unfortunately, are mostly empty.

In Frisco it's GOOD to keep clear of its trains. They kill without warning.

Say, when the feds put tax on gas, didn't they PROMISE the funds raised would be for ROADS? Which would include bridges. Not a cent for public transit train systems, buses, and ferries, which is where much goes now in many states.
