hey carol! I am way sorry if you think I copy/pasted your words so as to change their meaning. I would not do that to you or anyone else.. especially you who I have a lot if respect for! I do that.. often.. in my responses so as to cut down on how much something is repeated throughout a thread.
and as I said.. I'd be the last to live near a congested anything.. and feel for the folks that would have it forced on them. but.. I'm in my sixties.. have lived here most of my life.. and have always.. from day one.. heard this same story and like it or not the same not me no way response that has given the county and state all they need to do nothing.
so I'll ask again.. how much gridlock can we put up with? how about what is the effect of gridlock on healthcare? on emergency services? like how many have already died because they didn't get to the hospital fast enough? not to mention the quality if life of everyone who lives with it daily? how many arguments? accidents? before the issue is just so damn big that all the not in my backyard noise is silenced? because I know you know a road., and eventually others.. has just got to happen.
