From what I have heard Murphy has actually been deepening the politicising of NJT. I haven’t really heard anything good at all about NJT as of late. I have reached the point where I don’t trust it at all though.

GAAP actually allows a lot of leeway in where losses are shown. GAAP is generally designed to allow investors and stakeholders that are not directly involved in running the company to ascertain its overall financial health. No company I know of uses GAAP for internal reports or deciding long...

The concept of risk is an interesting thing, because it depends on what you consider a risk. Obviously theres a certain risk with an aircraft that if it mechanically fails you can drop out of the sky. However when you were talking about and under budgeted and already somewhat unreliable...

If the PTC was operating it wouldnt have happened. Old Yiddish proverb: If my grandmother had ****s shed be my grandfather.

I dont like it either; I bet the reps wont be representative of riders imterests, either. This is why I gave up on this stuff.

Seaboard, I understand how you feel. When we look at rail collisions, we see 2 dead and it is a statistic. I can only see it as a statistic, too. I didnt know them, and the human heart would never survive if it mourned every tragic loss in plane crashes, train crashes, car crashes, and good men...

Oh, Ive never seen you complain, Nate.

I disagree. Besides Volvo and Peugeot nothing is more so.

Hes a capital guy with no transit management experience (bad). He is also a former commuter (good).

Comfort is not safe.

Ill call my lawyer; Ill know all the bad things about him this evening.
