Cirque du Honolulu Council

Let's play City Council.  Meeting is now convened.  Fuckin clowns.  On the very top of the Council's agenda is the question of which particular rail technology is best for Honolulu's Light Rail mass transit project.  I could have sworn that the City Council hired a panel of esteemed mass transit experts whom two months ago reveiwed the technology options and picked steel-on-steel technology over everything from magnetic levitation to rubber-wheels-on-concrete and fibre glass on resin.  Thus the technology issue was settled once and for all and planning could proceed at a faster pace.  Apparently, not.  The snag is that council members whom don't want mass transit to be built at all are determined to scuttle the Light Rail project by filerbustering every phase of the project down the road.  Off topic, but deep down all the City Council members secretly lust to be the next mayor of Honolulu.  Until the next scheduled meeting, *people get ready for the train to Kapolei, all you need is a ½¢ tax increase to get on board. If ewa.
