Posted by Osmosis Jones on Tue Nov 22 00:52:50 2011, in response to Re: How the MTA is Destroying the Local Bus System, posted by Terrapin Station on Mon Nov 21 23:45:42 2011. No it's not. It's terrible. There are so many things wrong with it. The whole basis of the post is factually incorrect. How can you say that what Edwards wrote is excellent?How is he completely wrong? Some of his points did make sense, BrooklynBus does know what he's talking about when it comes to certain things from his perspective as a former operations planning figure. He also has every right to bash the MTA in all the opinion pieces he wants based on his experience. I see some people saying that this was supposed to be a news article, yet the very beginning of the article says "Allan Rosen discusses, in Part 1, the back-story and success of the 1978 Southwest Brooklyn bus route changes, and why this is how the MTA should do its bus route planning", implying that it was an opinion piece all along. No he's not. Seriously. He's very wrong, much of the time. Because you disagree with him, or because he "seriously" gets facts wrong? I ask him about Brooklyn service changes that happened in the past sometimes and his answers to those questions are usually spot on. Dude. Wake up. BrooklynBus has EVERYTHING to prove! He left NYCT under unfavorable circumstances (for him) and he has admitted that even while he was there, in general no one would listen to him. Now can you think of why all that happened? Now do you see why he spends so much time trying to show that NYCT is wrong? Yes? How? I looked up previous posts and he said that he retired on his own terms from the MTA, unless he was forced to resign? I also found out that apparently the MTA utilized some of the ideas he came up with after he left the MTA, but are you sure that no one listened to him rather than no one was able to implement his ideas for whatever reasons that had nothing to do with him personally? |
