    His plan has problems that need to be fixed, but he refuses to see it. That makes him an obstructionist. He needs to back off.

    I missed Clay’s presentation to the Committee today. Was there new info? I’m curious whether he is embracing the Main/Grand route yet.

    Off topic, I know, but the time stamp on these posts seems to be 2 hours off. Is it just me? If it’s now 12:00, I must be on the left coast… Cool.

    bill: no new information, and chastain was quite explicit that he has not embraced a main/grand route. my feeling is that as long as the city can prove that they are taking transit seriously, then he will not sue. if it appears that they just stall and throw up obstructions, then he will not go away (and neither should we).

    bill: you are correct. the time was set as UTC-7. it’s been fixed now. thanks for the catch!

    No biggie. My wife and I often set our mental clocks ahead an hour - mostly at the end of a long day. Again, sorry for dragging the string off-topic.
