But intelligent open minded people will be misled ONLY if they assume his facts are actually facts and his assumptions are actually valid/plausible. Which in both cases, they usually are not. Which is why we need to state in the strongest possible terms our objection to BrooklynBus's posts. |

I didn't say he was in that post (though I may have said it previously in the last few years). Nor have I ever deliberately tried to confuse him IIRC. If and when he gets confused, it is his own doing, for the most part. |

We're still waiting for the article.I stand corrected; it wasn't in the column itself but in his own comment on the column. "You cannot simply look at the advantages for bus passengers and ignore the impacts on everyone else or argue a bus passenger's time is worth more, because a better argument can be made that a driver's time is worth more since their incomes are higher." |

Instead of relying on the excerpts I posted, R30 could have read the articles on the web. I included the dates of publication to make it easy to find them.BUT he didn't want to find them because it would show he was wrong. In other news, I'm still waiting for RIP to find the article where you wrote that pedestrian lives don't matter. How long do you think we're going to have to wait. Will the SAS be completed first? LOL!! |

It's a good start to the long road to recovery that you have ahead of you.No, we don't speak for everyone, but we do speak for many people who have shared their views of you with us. Also, when has ANY generally respected, intelligent person on this forum EVER expressed the sentiment that they more or less agree with the majority of what you write, and that your facts are always factual and your assumptions are always sound? |

The article dealt with SBS and the percentage of traffic from buses, cars and trucks. Bus' point was the traffic is overwhelmingly cars and trucks and their journey is slowed by SBS. |

They allowed you to write because you were writing opinion pieces. If you were writing real articles that require facts, you likely would not have been allowed to write, assuming the person making the decision was intelligent and open minded and committed to the truth. |

I stated everyone's time needs to be treated equally and that the needs of drivers should not be ignored with the belief that only a bus riders' time matters.You said "a driver's time is worth more since their incomes are higher." |

The only credentials you need to know are based on the quality of my factual posts. No one can show a pattern of me being factually incorrect. Besides, say I have worked for a transit company. Would that simple fact change your entire opinion of me and my posts and all the people here I support??? And why only a "transit company?" How do you even define that? Why would that be the ONLY thing that matters? |

He was trying to put a cost of traffic by adding up the incomes of everybody stuck in traffic. His point is that a car owner probably has a higher income.But then the total incomes of passengers on one bus exceeds the income of one person in a car. |
