Worry how to pay for the dam thing later.

You sound like Nancy Pelosi -- eager to spend someone elses money. We're already so far in the hole in this country that even my grandchildren won't be able to pay for it.

That stupid damn hole under the river is the biggest waste of tax money I have ever seen and there is zero potential for enough ridership to even pay for a fraction of it. Aside for the hundreds of millions being spent on it now, it will cost tens of millions a year in maintenance in the future and PAT can't afford to maintain what they already have.

You are really getting old with this choo-choo train obsession.

Maybe it's time to tell that Scaife whacknut to ante up, or start taking his name off of everything.
Heck, he wasn't the one who earned the privilege to put their name on everything anyway.
Elsie Hillman too. She's been skating by for several years now, pissing money away on Andy Warhol. Hasn't done anything substantive since the Pitt library was built back in the early '70s.

Hey! There's an idea!

Tell Elsie that instead of the T coming outta the ground next to Andy Carnegie's building, we'll deliver it right to the front door of her building... complete with the red carpet!!!

That Scaif guy might have to walk a little further, but I don't think he's gonna pony up anyway. Something wrong with that dude... he's a lot more pennypinching then the ones who came before him.
