I wouldn't mind to be able to commute with my own car (although I don't own one) for a couple of years... travel when I want, on my own.

In Tampa we have cars, extremely bad bus service or the ankle express. Mind you we also have the highest number of pedestrian deaths for the country. At least you people have a transportation system.

I live in the section that used to be served only by the S&M.. sorry H&C, and now we have more train less crowded. however i do agree that, especially to the novice, the swirl line is really unfathomable.. lol…

From a topographical viewpoint the new layout is obviously designed to promote chaos in both directions when a train breaks down - rather than the unidirectional chaos previously achievable and frequently achieved. Apologies if anything about this comment offends but years of tubing has rendered me somewhat cynical.
