Then the dog across the street starts barking, and the dog next door, so my dog starts barking. I'm sure you've had that experience before. 3 out of 4 dogs have no idea of why they're barking. If one dog barks then all within hearing distance barks. <br /><br /> I'm sure Laurie and Teabaggers practice it often. <br /><br />.eLwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181513157776748018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3157940712861236775.post-12585672117729492352009-09-11T16:17:08.704-05:002009-09-11T16:17:08.704-05:00Citizen- you are about as informed as Congressman ...Citizen- you are about as informed as Congressman Joe Wilson of SC...first of all you can't have a light rail system without a bus system...how are those people going to get to the train or from it to their home or employment? (Beam me up, Scotty?) Maybe all those cities that have or are building light rail systems already have a demonstrated financial committment to mass transit, and people using it...Which doesn't exist in NWA at this time. Those are just two of the major criteria that have to be met before you want to spend money ($2M according to mr luoni...) Gee, that's what is great about the internet...anyone can say anything without stopping to get the facts...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3157940712861236775.post-86288191158017508712009-09-11T15:30:47.530-05:002009-09-11T15:30:47.530-05:00If you'd stop calling it a light rail study an...If you'd stop calling it a light rail study and call it what it is, an alternatives analysis, then people wouldn't have so much room to oppose it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3157940712861236775.post-83060478205374905402009-09-11T12:44:29.585-05:002009-09-11T12:44:29.585-05:00Hawkins, Pumphrey, and the slugs at the NWARPC wil...Hawkins, Pumphrey, and the slugs at the NWARPC will stop any effort for light rail without lifting a finger, that is to say in a passive aggressive resistance to any change, partly because they are bought and partly because they are lazy. It will take a thorough house-cleaning before anything ever changes, and that won't be easy as long as small town mayors have a majority of the seats on the commission.Citizennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3157940712861236775.post-70688625748553180742009-09-11T12:05:55.788-05:002009-09-11T12:05:55.788-05:00Jonah:
