The subway system was started, it just hasn't been finished yet.
In fact, it is "the largest abandoned under-construction subway tunnel in the United States."
Good. I want to move there. Public transportation is an exercise in government control and socialism over it's citizens. Anyone that pines for it is a socialist that is too stupid and ignorant to realize that your government owns you when you use public transportation.
Now, GFY Chris Parry.
"great little ball park" for those LIKE ME who didn't know any better.
He's preternaturally scared of Christians.
He's a Eurofag wannabe who settled in Canada?
Come on Chris, make the move to Berlin, you know you want to.
What did North America do to get stuck with this silly Aussie poofter?
I think perhaps he meant “inner-city,” but the bong water and Zima drove him to hit on that nasty, slutty, irresistibly-seductive “t” key, rather than proceeding with the correct spelling.
Although remarkably poorly worded, I think he’s talking about intra-city trains. IOW, you can’t get to Cincy by train.
Only those who’ve never traveled on Amtrak (outside the NE corridor) would consider this a negative. I tried to use AT extensively in FL, but trains were late, for a 225 mile trip, for periods ranging from 1 to 10 hours. Just not practical to use.
BTW, his talk about nowhere to eat is just idiotic. I’ve been to a great many cities in America, and you can always find somewhere neat, although not perhaps pretentious to eat, if you research it a little. I bet there are some great restaurants in Cincy.
I know the fastest growing city in the world is Dublin.
Well...he did say he moved to Canada to get 'FREE' health care (specifically dental work) because it was too expensive in the US!
Sorry, meant inter-city trains.
And the city where the people wear the biggest shoes is Tripoli.
Amtrack is an inter-city train system. From the rest of his paragraph, it is clear that he is talking about intra-city commuter trains, not Amtrack, though he says inter-city.

Mini Biography
Born in Sydney Australia in 1969, Chris Parry attended Sydney Boys’ High School and can thank Kevin Smith’s View Askew Productions for his break into the movie business. Working with filmmakers like Scott Mosier, Malcolm Ingram, Brian Lynch, Bryan Johnson and Vincent Pereira, Parry eventually went back to Australia and invested in a film magazine, Filmink. Within two years the magazine was the most widespread film-based magazine in the country, leading Parry to return to the US and pursue his freelance writing career. Having ghost-written for a variety of producers since 2000, Parry is now based out of Vancouver, Las Vegas and LA - depending on the time of year.

Trivia
Was one of the three people who created the eFilmCritic.com movie website in 1997.
Wrote a screenplay in 2000, Do Over, which dealt with a man who time traveled back to the age of 15 and had to deal with high school. This same title and theme later became a TV series for the WB, and a second series, That Was Then, went into production for the ABC at the same time, also with the exact same theme.
Nickname ‘Oz’ was dubbed upon him by his former boss, Kevin Smith, so as to avoid confusion with another person with a similar name.
Does his screenplay writing in Vancouver where he says, “the air is clean, nobody has a gun and you can cut the quiet with a knife,” but spends much of the year in LA and Las Vegas.
Where Are They Now
Currently writing freelance for various international and domestic film and entertainment magazines, developing Out Of character and Replay for production in 2001.
Wait, he claims he worked for Kevin Smith.. interesting, that may be worth checking out if he is claiming to have worked for THE Kevin Smith. I’ll get back to y’all on that.
He sure likes the free healthcare in Canada. Maybe he’s angling for a position in the Obama administration on “cradle to grave” healthcare.

not because the Cincy city losers (i.e, commie council) hasn’t tried. they are wetting their panties trying to get an 8 car trolley system that covers 2 miles. cost .... 200 million dollars. I’ll let you do the math.
Cincy, the city of losers .......the Luken news reader, (the riot instigator) Roxanne Qualls, and the current commie dirtbag has taken a once proud city into the dust of Detroit.
Bulldoze the businesses and restaurants to put in one billion dollar of tax funded stadiums for more losers to play in. Send the entertainment, bars, hotels, restarants and all sort os creative profitable business across the river to KY, where Newport decided to let the investor take the risk and build the mega dollar generating complex. Newport on the levee is the place to be. Hamilton county got two toilet bowls and the tax bill. oh .. the turds are still floating in each
It is what happens when liberals are in charge.
Chris Parry says the Vancouver Sun is okay with what he has done. I think we should find out if that is true?!
