I appreciate your optimism. I don't even have a reason to ride what rail there will be, but I will, just to do it. ( I live downtown....north end.... and, yes, walk to Seaholm area and covention center all the time) It does not seem a likey route.... but I hope it has some success.

While I wish light rail would have passed..... it will. I am reminded of the non-built expressways Mopac (?) posted recently. Sometimes what seems like a good idea needs more time to perk..... I am sure when it finally happens (light rail...or whatever we will call it by then) it will be even better than what we turned down. Why? Because even more information and advancements will have taken place. Not how I planned it..... but I am sure that it will eventually happen ..... and probably benefit from the delay. It's just how things happen. Time will tell.....
