I admitted when I was mistaken by a few years when the bus routes were renumbered but it still did not affect the larger point.It still took you a really long time to admit that. {Please don't make me find and link the posts where you stuck to that assertion}. Most can't stand your guts because you constantly insult for no reason and refuse to have rational discussions just to prove you are right. You are correct here. It makes it difficult to be friendly towards him, since he's insulted other people I like and respect around here. Probably me a few times too. However try and take the person out of the equation and simply look at the facts of the matter. If you can take emotion out of it (which I understand is difficult) can you still honestly say he's wrong here? |

That is the biggest joke of all time. You calling someone else obnoxious and annoying.If the second scenario is what happened, they are still guilty for liking an idea just because one of their own suggested it. Operations Planninf should be eager to accept worthwhile suggestions from outside departments as well as from the public. |

And you have no way of knowing otherwise.And my previous response also applies that a good idea has just as much merit no matter who suggested it. There would be no reason to wait for someone else inside the department to suggest the same thing for it to be accepted. |

Yes the idea was common sense which happened to be the final line in my New York Times letter in 1974. So the question remains why the MTA did not renumber the Manhattan crosstown routes according to street numbers in 1974 when there was a massive renumbering?It's because they did not think of it until I suggested it. And I would like to add that the MTA told my boss in 1974 that the next time they renumber bus routes they will do it my way. But twelve years later, there were different people in charge. |

I am not the only one here who believes you constantly change the issue.Why do you think we are even discussing this now? The subject was Woodhaven Boulevard. You kept calling me a liar and an idiot. So I brought up my New York Times letter in order to prove I am not an idiot because the NYT does not print letters from idiots. You responded that they do. I responded that isn't possible because letters written in poor English are NEVER published and idiots CANNOT write well. Besides I wrote the idea and it was accepted by the MTA proving it was not written by an idiot. Then you started arguing that the MTA never accepted MY idea. That someone else must have also suggested it WITHOUT ANY PROOF. And even if such is the case, everyone agrees it was a good idea, I suggested it, and the MTA implemented it. So there is no problem. Yet you keep on calling me a liar and idiot and SHIFT the discussion to say I am usually wrong about most everything. So according to you I have to be wrong now too. Yes this is getting as bad as the Trump - Hillary debate because you can't focus on the real issues but can only make accusations in order to divert attention and keep this debate going. When will you stop already? Why do you need to have the last word? Please don't respond so this can end now. |

I never claimed otherwise. My point is that you can't definitively say it was YOUR idea that triggered the change especially since it's very likely that many other people had the same idea, particularly in light of the fact that you said the M14 was renumbered many years before.I never said it wasn't a good idea and I never said it needed to originate from within the organization. Again, I'm disputing your claim that it was definitively your idea that triggered the change. That's preposterous. It may have been the case but it's not a certainty like you claim. |

Quit changing what I write. I never said the M14 was renumbered many years before. Read what I wrote if you can understand English.See I am right that having an intelligent discussion with you is not possible. You constantly rewrite what I wrote, make nitpicking points, change the subject, use circular logic and do anything to try to prove you are always correct. So now you say it is a good idea. And you can't deny that I proposed it. GOOD IDEAS ARE NOT PROPOSED BY IDIOTS WHICH IS WHAT YOU CALLED ME and is how this whole discussion started. SINCE YOU ADMIT IT US A GOOD IDEA, I COULDN'T POSSBLY BE AN IDIOT AS YOU KEEP STATING INCESSANTLY. SO YOU LOSE. If I was the only one to think of it, or if they made the change because of me or not ARE ALL DIVERSIONS from the original discussion so quit changing the subject. I believe they did use my suggestion, but just in case they only decided to make the change because someone else on their staff also thought of it, is not relevant to my original point. |

I provided you with all the proof.They renumbered bus routes in 1974 not using my idea. I wrote a letter that was printed in 1974 in the NY Times with the idea. The MTA responded to my boss that the next time they renumber bus routes in Manhattan, they will do it my way. I personally explain the idea again to the head of Operations Planning in 1984 (or maybe in 1986) explaining the idea and it is rejected by him. Later in 1986, he accepts he makes the change. You stated that you never said the idea should have to be suggested by someone in his department for it to be accepted. Therefore if someone else from his department also suggested it to him, it would be immaterial. So what type of proof are looking for to PROVE it was my idea that caused them to make the change? A signed notarized statement from the MTA? Wakefield even agrees they used my idea. Let's see what you will twist now to keep alleging I am a liar. |

See you are changing what I wrote once again. Are you doing it intentionally or are you just sloppy.I never said they owed me a thank you note for my suggestion. My comment referred to someone sending the MTA a suggestion they later implemented. The comment I made regarding my suggestion was that the Director of OP owed me a phone call when he changed his mind and decided to use my idea since the tokd me he wouldn't do it. if anyone else in the organization also thought of it or not is not relevant. What is relevant was I WAS THE ONE WHO TOLD IT TO SOMEONE WITH THE POWER TO MAKE THE CHANGE. And he made it. You even said it wasn't necessary for him to wait for someone in his department to suggest it in order to do it. |

Only 8 subway stops in Chiacgo? Incorrect, there are about 40-50 subway stops in Chicago because the city limits include most of the system except the western potions of the Green, Pink, and Blue lines. And you accuse me of trying to discredit you when you are nowhere near an accurate number of subway stops in Chicago in an unrelated article. You can be a better writer when you stop and take you time in making sure your facts are accurate. |
