Those of you who are passionate about reducing fossil fuel dependency and the voracious appetite for fuel and land (to say nothing of fatal accidents), check out http://www.taxi2000.com/ which is a sustainable rapid transit system that has the potential for moving beyond use of fossil fuels. It seems to me the best alternative for folks who cannot bike or walk. One three-foot rail can accommodate three freeway lanes of traffic. (Think of it! Highway 35W reduced to a rail three feet wide...and since it is elevated, gardens could be growing where the asphalt was---)
I would most welcome & appreciate a factual conversation with someone who OPPOSES the Taxi2000 system, and who would like to get down to specifics. I cannot find such a person...yet the Met Council & Transportation Depts. do not support it. PS: Sorry about the first mailing of this message…somehow I hit the "send" button before I had written my name and neighborhood, and I did not check the spelling.
