Re: Bike Lanes

Are you trolling us? No, just getting a bit tired of some of the urban development cliche that doesn’t really seem to change the city as drastically as it needs to. Let’s just be very honest, very few people want to bike commute to work. There, I said it. It’s probably in the 100s of people in a me...

We're going to get a whole lot of practical information about how to bus large amounts of people all around the metro.

Re: Murphy Beds

We have one in our guest room. Game changer for the 51 weeks a year we don't have a houseguest.

Along with being attached to the wall framing with 3 inch screws, it's design makes what you described impossible to happen, thank goodness.

Re: KCMO Downtown Streetcar

The Mayor really wants to keep the dedicated lanes on Main St. Can’t wait to hear what the opposition says. This is a no-brainer, especially since everyone’s already gotten used to functioning with a limited Main St. https://twitter.com/quintonlucaskc/status/1679095816437346304?s=46&t=t3PXEMdTm...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

You’re a cry baby, anytime someone talks bad about sports on this form all of you get so bunched up. I think it’s a terrible investment regardless of how much money it brings to the city because our city isn’t going to use the money wisely they’re just going to continue to put it in their pockets. ...

Re: Trees in KC (ongoing)

100% moving transmission lines underground, even incrementally over a long time frame, would be laudable for the numerous benefits it would have in terms of reliability, interactions with trees, beautification, etc. Not saying it wouldn't be an expense but it's something that should be nibbled at a...

Re: Best Local Trails

My wife got an ebike and it has been a wild success in getting us to explore new trails without worrying about hills.

She turns it off on flat parts so she still feels like she's getting good exercise.

She spends a lot of time waiting on me now.
