Ah, yes, Scotty's 'light rail' . The panacea for everything! It will solve traffic jams, health problems, cancer, reduce unemployment and homelessness, and even cure AIDS! theoretically, it will do all of these except the last. stinky fingers

In 2000, I remember a SPI article that said that in 2006, the Seattle light rail will be the most used light rail in the continent. But we are now 2 years away from the expected completion date and what do we have to show for it? Nada. 60% of voters said they would take an increase in taxes for light rail but here we are 3 years later and nothing completed.

no shit! That is my point dumbfuck!

I agree. That is why we should make it easy and affordable to use mass transit. If it didn't take me 4 hours to take a bus to work, I would. It is faster for me to walk.
-
Yes it certainly is. Your avoidance of the issue that We are outgrowing our road infrastructure and are in dire need or mass transportation systems before it becomes out of hand clearly shows that you have 1) no clue what you are talking about and 2) that you are still weening off your mother's tit. Let me guess; still touchy about that new SUV that your 'rents bought you for graduation? yellow H2 jah?

Went to EuroDisney with the 'rents? Good on ya mate! ...Yes I can say that we can learn from countries that have gone through this 100's of years ago. We are going through the same population/transportation problems that they did, so why not learn fro their mistakes? Oh and light rail Cracked; we are already supposed to be 1/2 way through construction of it in case you didn't already know, but the drivers of WA state in their infinite wisdom and the greedy politicians in their unabated angst decided we no longer need one because we now have $30 car tabs. Cracked, it is obvious you dont know shit. Name one big, highly populated city that does not have a form of mass transit like this. Vancouver has one and is currently expanding it to reflect the projected growth of the area. Where is the plan for Seattle's mass transit before our highways become even more innundated with vehicles than they already are. As to my spelling; I will 'learn' to spell, when you learn to read and think.

Bullshit. First off, you have to look at developed countries where people are rich enough to own cars. In Europe distances are far smaller, so public transportation is a more viable option. A similarly effective public transportation system in North America would be WAAAAY more expensive. It's not the vicious cycle you make it out to be. Have you ever lived in Europe Cracked? I have spent near 1/2 of my life there. The distances really are not that much farther than here except for between cities, but no-one is proposing light rail between cities. There are already existing train routes that do this; no-one uses them though. There will be a day when the PNW will have to build a light rail. They will see the traffic and have no more space to widen the roads and will have to hurriedly build a light rail. There are other cities in the U.S. that have done this. N.Y. for example. The real problem is with the social norms in the U.S. pertaining to car ownership as a status symbol and the demanding of the freedom thata car gives at a low low cost. Quit talking out of your ass.
