You're lucky. Work has been consuming most of my bitterness. As far as it 
goes, I went from right-leaning when I got to CMU to somewhere on the left 
now, a benefit, I guess, of education. But that's neither here nor there.

Can anyone tell me if C.D.Palmer or Tom Fitzgerald were liberal or 
conservative, and how it affected the running of Pittsburgh Railways?

And did anti-American sentiments in 1950 cause new immigrants to not want 
to ride on cars with "American-sounding" motormen, instead waving them by 
for more ethnic-sounding fellow?
