Sounds like cooked books to

Sounds like cooked books to me.
I wrote "Face it, MAX is about ten times safer than driving. There hasnt been one RIDER death on MAX yet! Think of all the hundreds killed in car accidents since MAX opened." Did you catch that Jim? Not one RIDER has been killed! Your stats are therefore completely irrelevant to the argument of whether its safer to ride MAX or drive!

And no I'm not being paid like you are by Big Oil.
You, like R. OToole, are a local representative of the Big Oil founded and funded Cato Institute which has as one of their main priorities to criticize electric mass transit systems.

"Financial firms now contributing generously to Cato include American Express, Chase Manhattan Bank, Chemical Bank, Citicorp/Citibank, Commonwealth Fund, Prudential Securities and Salomon Brothers. Energy conglomerates include: Chevron Companies, Exxon Company, Shell Oil Company and Tenneco Gas, as well as the American Petroleum Institute, Amoco Foundation and Atlantic Richfield Foundation. "
