Ok prarierose let's try this again Reread my previous statement... if you'll notice the following - - I DONT have a degree in electrical engineering -I DON'T make 890 dollars an hour i don't even make close that i probobly make less then you my job will never pay off as much as yours will I help people get from A to B, You help them in various other ways, and for that i congradualte you. Who in this world has common sense? I do.. i bet you do.. Ed does.. ken does... anyone on here probobly does.. now who in this world uses their common sense to realize that the gates DON'T always work? ooooo believe it or not, not many poeple. Who in this world can add?? oooo i can... i bet you can.. Ed can... Do yuo do quick arithamtic in your head before going over a crossing, see i bet you didn't know.. is that the electric gates and lights are more likely to screw up the more tracks there are.. so let's see if theres 1+1 tracks that makes 2 tracks that means the gates are twice as likely to screw up as they would with one track. or if theres a sign that sais 4 tracks do you still just stop? realizing those danm things are 4 times more likely to screw up then anywhere else.. No, when i'm driving my train believe it or not, i can't stop at every crossing. I blast by most of them at more then 70 MPH. Do yuo realize what Stop, look, listen, and live can do for you? Do you relize how many people's lives that has saved maybe you should quit bucking that system, give up your grudge.. play by the rules that state " A train is bigger then your car" please don't tell me you disagree with that statement. ok i'll refine it.. "a train is slightly bigger then your car.." what's the closest you've ever been to an oncomming freight train moving at 65 MPH? to realize, holy crap.. if i was under there... theres no chance in heck that i'd survive.. i've stood right beside them as they fly by.. and in no way do i reccomend this. But it makes you think.. sometimes you have to expierience a hit, or a fast moving freight train to understand it's capabilities, or in my cse a GE4400 locomotive with 8 cars moving at speeds in the upper 70's.. maybe one day, and pray to god this never happens to you, you'll expirience a crash for yourself. you'll see what it's like to cheat the system. let's play cheat the gates game.. ooo that small train isn't moving that fast.. you know thats what most people think? "That SMALL TRAIN IS NOT MOVING that FAST" so let's CHEAT the GATES those words are a deadly combination.. SMALL, TRAIN, NOT, MOVING, FAST, CHEAT, and GATES. if 6 out of seven of those words have ever appeared simoultainously in your head in the same sentance. you know your pattern of thinking is out of wack. So again, your not fooling me.. you can buck and kick at the "stop, look, listen and live" slogan all you want, disregard it till the cows come home. It would bve an absolute shame to lose a nurse as good as yourself to a Friggin gate crossing that failed to activate because of some technical error, when all she had to do is STOP, LOOK, LISTEN, and LIVE. and, (id love to address you by your name) all i'm trying to do is save your life in a way. the same kind of thing you do for other people.. the same kinda thing you'd do for me, i hope. but in a way your like a bucking patient. refusing to accept a simple slogan.. if it doesn't work why did CN addopt it, why did they waste a lot of paint and paint it on their locomotives? why did Conrail adopt it, CSX adopt it? they must be wasting their time, in a way i feel i am too. you may be a woman, but i was kinda hoping you could let down the "women are always right" for a few seocndes, and take my advice seriously to heart. It's a simple slogan and it's proves to save lives. so please, i beg of you.. take my advice to heart, or don't if the slogan is to hard to go by. Yuor getting advice straight from the horses mouth. I've been there at an accident.. Pray to God you never have to be, and after giveing you my advice, i hope you relize i'm only helping you, this is one part of the job i don't get to do often.. you get to help people everyday. i'm so envious of your job, i love helping people.. and i'm trying to make that up by doing so on here. kev.
