[PRCo] Re: Brilliance in Transit Management

You only have to ride the systems. You should be an employee in one of todays transit authorities. Todays managers would have trouble running a shopping cart through the grocery store, not to mention running buses, cars, and trains for the purpose of moving real live passengers. Strictly my own opinion, of course, I think most of them are the horses @$$. They only respond to Bus Rapid Transit, fancy lunches, and golf outings.--
