You're not describing the New York City subway. The L line was separated from pretty much everything else so it got upgraded to CBTC over a few years as budget, time constraints, and politics allowed. The rest of the network is thoroug

When I was growing up (many years ago now) we were taught that the indigenous people of North America were not men and women, but braves and squaws. Like stallions and mares, bucks and does, roosters and hens.

This is why no one has scaled the peak of Everest or stood on the South Pole. It's also why we still do bloodletting and watch our friends and relatives die from common diseases and infections. I for one want to soar to the heavens and

I don't understand how the advantage of the DCO is that the receiving organization does not have to track it: it's a declaration of authenticity that can be used to pursue remedies in court in the even of fraud. Contributors would
