Re: Regional Transit Authority of Southeast Michigan

Its a service. Asking it to make money is like asking the post office to make money. Clearly I've hit a raw nerve because you are normally smarter than this......where did I ask it to make money? Where did I suggest the farebox recovery ratio be at or over 100%? The answer is I DIDN"T But I believe...

Re: Regional Transit Authority of Southeast Michigan

As a Washtenaw County resident I will vote no. I am happy paying for the AAATA, a service I never use because it helps a small number of my neighbors. A large number of those buses are mostly empty most of the time. Only a couple runs at prime commute time actually fill up. I do not want to pay for...

Re: Considering a smart phone

What is a good phone that doesn't cost a fortune and has decent features like a good camera and overall smart phone functions. I don't need an I-phone or a droid just something that will get the job done. step one is to pick your provider. step 2 is pick a phone compatible with that provider. No ma...

Re: Self-driving cars

Research done by the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute suggests any sort of wide spread driver-less vehicles is a long way away.... and..... research suggests it is very unclear whether driver-less cars can ever be as safe as an experienced middle age driver. They can be stati...

Re: Reluctantly, #ImWithHer

I will turn 65 years old a week and half before the winner takes office. The earliest election I have memory of (small memories) was 1960, Nixon/Kennedy. These two are the worst options in my life...and it ain't even close. I don't even know who to blame. "We the people" voted them in as candidates ...

Re: Mike Valenti, Such A Tool

sometimes I feel like Reiger is trying to be a Mini-Mike.
If my concern comes true that Terry never recovers to a "work ready" point for that job description I wonder if this becomes the permanent afternoon show?

Re: Our Voting System Needs Overhauled

In the past I have been unable to find evidence of wide spread voter fraud when I GTSU....(google that shit up) seems to me maybe a small town drain commissioner vote could be changed with the fraud of individual votes but no way millions of fraudulent votes are changing bigger elections. I don't be...

Re: Wolverines vs. Detroit Lions

I am on the long list of sports honks who would say there is no chance the best college team in any season could beat the worst NFL team.....not even close. Michigan might have 4-5-6 guys good enough to make an NFL team. The Lions have 53. Doesn't matter how bad you think they are 53 Detroit Lions g...

Re: The State of Politics

I'm 64 years old and in my presidential election memory never has "lesser of two evils" been a more apt description of what people are picking from. Doesn't matter which one your looking at it seems so many people can only say "at least he/she isn't him/her". The biggest concern I have isn't "uninfo...

Re: Rep dies in Motorcycle Crash

Apples and oranges. On the city streets of A.A. a motorcycle is probably is as safe as bicycle. Now if you can get your bicycle going lot faster than 35 MPH on the flats then you are superhero. I've traveled much of state on a bicycle and I think I once hit 35+ MPH on the flats. The average speed o...

Re: Rep dies in Motorcycle Crash

Agreed. But I disagree that this premise applies to motorcycle accidents. Are you suggesting that the person who kills a biker (whether at fault or not) does not get hurt? That seems like a lot of mental distress baggage to carry around for the rest of your life - knowing that your actions killed s...
