Oh, yes! I'd forgotten that it was you that suggested some of the ideas I really like as well. I'm sorry for that, and I'll do better at crediting in the future.

I'm honestly not seeking credit....I didn't intend to come off that way, I am simply trying to push my plan, I'd really love to see that area be less car oriented....selfishly I live there after all. Turning the Charles Term (including my god damn bus stop) into a parking lot is my worst nightmare and I'm living it right now. Wide lanes on Joseph mean people go pretty fast along there too...certainly not as bad as other areas, but plenty of folks boot it from the stop sign to the lights...

Point is, I don't care who gets credit, I just care that something more people centric gets built.
