Why the silence? Are you making a comment on possible contamination in the corridor? I'm for cleaning that up, not being silent about it. <br /> <br />Please don't be put off by that guy writing about Highway 17. Sure, it's dangerous. I was on it today, driving from Aptos to San Francisco on Memorial Day. It's definitely easier with a "shotgun " person along to watch out for red Jeeps straying out of their lane, etc. <br /> <br />My daughter is pregnant. I'm not going to let her drive alone on Highway 17 on Memorial Day. Her husband is a firefighter and couldn't go with her to an important appointment in San Francisco. <br /> <br />Tonight I watched the World War II Memorial celebration in Washington DC. My late husband was a Sergeant in the Army Air Corps in WW II. I have traveled with a terrific church choir from Santa Rosa to sing on the beaches and in the water at Normandy, in praise and honor or our American soldiers and others who died there 60 years ago. <br /> <br />I'm a tough cookie. I'm not embarassed to say that I oppose a group of greedy developers who want to develop more passenger service on the Santa Cruz line, when we have no ridership for buses that travel the same line. They want to tax us for Redevelopment funds to pay for "appropriate railside commercial centers, housing centers." Please, I'm savvy to the fact that wealthy developers want poor people to live along rail lines, where they don't have tyo have gasoline-driven cars, while the wealthy live along "open spaces," way far away from train tracks, in pleasant setting set aside for large estates through philantropic donations. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
