Once again, you are brilliant only at confusing issues, e.g., confusing the fraction of capacity actually used with the total amount of capacity, as when you say,The current station only handles 20 tph; the new station will berth 20% more trains. The problem at the current station appears to be that trains are unable to depart on time. This problem could have been easily corrected at far less cost than that of the new terminal. Once the WTC reopens (a bunch of new towers with tens of tousands of people working in them) we'll see what happens. Whenever that ends up being, it will be well after the new terminal is completed, and the capacity constraint that it imposes will remain with us. What a great approach to smart planning: let's wait for a problem to develop in the future, and then let's spend more money to fix what we could have easily taken care of years ago at less cost. Does your foam also cure much faster than concrete with rebar does? Is that the latest term in your vocabulary - 'concrete with rebar'? You've been using it a lot lately, like a man passing himself off as being expert in a field that he isn't expert at, the Darius McCollum of subchat. |
