That record would be responsible for the largest bus service improvement in Brooklyn. Eleven routes changed on the same day in 1978. Those changes never would have happened if not for me. Additionally many more of the changes I made in 1978 came to fruition years later when the MTA finally realized they should be done. Among them were the B82 extension from Canal Av to Coney Island. (it was the B5 when I recommended it.); the extension of the S53 from 95 St to 86 St. (It was the R7 when I proposed it.); extension of the B68 from West 5th to Stillwell and rerouting the B1 from Bay Ridge Avenue to 86 Street.

Also, in my 1972 Masters Thesis I proposed extending the B38 in Ridgewood, the route they called the B43, the route they called the B47, extending the B57 to replace the B75 and the east west portion of te B61 along 9 Street to replace the B77. I thought of all those changes as long as 38 years before the MTA made them.

And as I proved to you before at least half of my Sheepsheadbtes articles related to bus improvements and less than 25% even mentioned automobiles, but you insist on distorting the facts.

And when I say fairness for everyone, I do indeed mean everyone. Your definition of everyone is bus riders, cyclists and pedestrians? Why do you not consider the needs of automobile drivers? I will tell you. It is because of our anti-automobile bias where you believe no one should drive and we need to make driving as inconvenient as possible to discourage auto use and promote mass transit even if we make no mass transit improvements. I woudn't call that being fair to everyone, but you would.

And as for that last sentence, it is a run on, but is perfectly understandable. You just can't accept any viewpoints that don't agree with yours.
