Greetings; To add perspective: - In the nine years of the Vietnam "War" there were ~58,000 US casualties. - In 2003 there were 325 deaths at grade crossings. (FYI, most grade crossing accidents and deaths occurred in California, Texas, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, and Louisiana.) This is not to minimize or trivialize any of these deaths, but I feel that the effort should be applied to the biggest problem. Other data points. - According to a recent survey I heard about on the radio, (not done by Verizon or Sprint!), cell phone usage does not appear to be a significant cause of highway crashes. They didn't say what % was significant. - Also, some years ago I read of a study that concluded that many of the single occupant highway fatalities may actually be suicides. As far as grade crossing accidents and deaths are concerned, isn't the only way to really eliminate them to seperate the railroad and street? Orhow about just blocking them off with Jersey Barriers! Good Luck! Dennis
