Yes! I'm really excited for having light rail 10 minutes from where I live! And, as long as there's no delay, it's coming as soon as year 2035! Just in time when Year 2038 Problem will create huge employment opportunities for us old farts!

- xyzzyz 9y agoYou mean, enjoy sitting in never-ending traffic jam while people in a crowded train pass you by?
- taobility 9y agono, he should continue to work in self-driving car, otherwise, what's the point of self-driving :)
