Mr. Bond, you could respectfully disagree without hurling insults. I have been told by state officials that you have been very abusive to them. Please maintain a modicum of decorum so that these issues can be discussed in a civilized manner. I still maintain that there are benefits to an elevated system. I tried very hard to bring an at-grade alternative to the table in the advanced planning stages, but all decisions were made behind closed doors. I was blackballed for my efforts. I was involved in advanced planning for numerous rail systems on the Mainland.  Any changes to the design at this point in time would require a supplemental EIS.
