"Truth passes through three phases: 1) It is ridiculed. 2) It is violently opposed. 3) It is accepted as self-evident." Albert Schopenhouer. In the United States, rail is currently passing through Phase Two.


From the Cabalmaster:

The Secret Worldwide Transit Cabal is pleased to bring to you an innovative proposal for public-transit "performance measures."

An FOC theorizes that the quality of transit service is directly proportional to the number of management staff that actually ride the system, and calls this the "Managers Ride Index."

(Imagine, mused yet another FOC, if the managers not only rode, but actually owned the system!)

We Opinionated Ones hink that such innovative thinking should not go unrecognized! We think even Fudgemeister Wendell would agree with this one!
