I think we should have the rails elevated and not be at grade level mixed in with the already busy streets.

No, we just want it done right. Not right now. Fiscal responsiblity is the goal of most (not all, obviously ) conservative leaders.

does anybody know whats really going on with the Metro Rail expansion? I really don't see any construction going on, maybe its because I'm on the southwest part of town. Is it still going to be finished by 2012?

This is where I go to get updates on the rail.

Houston Architecture Info Forum - Houston's largest online community -> Trains

The info trickles in slowly though.

"Done right" is just a stall against rail in favor of the oil company kickback taxpayer-scams. Keep the kickbacks to auto manufacturers, big oil, the tire lobby coming. More and more please!

Who was in charge of the government during the recent devaluation of the currency? Putting the country into a deficit? You can pull your Bill Clinton partisan fetish but he definitely can't be responsible for any actions after 9/11.
