"I launched the effort between Xmas 1964 and year’s end, after making the decision while on an MTA bus from Arlington to Cambridge." Creasy couldn't have made the decision riding an MTA bus in December, 1964! The MTA had been succeeded by the MBTA in August, 1964. (Too pedantic?)

Aren't some NYC subway lines still referred to by the names of defunct companies?

  Yes, and in Boston people often continue to use the old name of a renamed street, or since demolished landmark, for decades. Still it was an amusing pedantic comment.
