Bill,

We don't have anyone complain about discomfort on the cable cars in San
Francisco, nor did we when locals could actually use them to get from

point

A to point B.

In 1987, during one of Muni Metro's frequent down moments, I was

conductor

on W2 496 in the Trolley Festival. I counted 150 people packed into

the

tram enroute to Castro Street. Everyone rode in perfect safety. No

one

was

complaining.

But how many would repeat the journey everyday "without complaining"
if it was the only transit mode permanently on offer, rather than just
temporarily?

Cheers,
