		<description><![CDATA[Appalling.  Just appalling.  This nonsense about improving air quality is completely undermined by the continuing attack on the ability of working class people to travel freely.  The price of environmental extremism is the continuing decline in the standard of living for working individuals.  By constraining where houses can be built, where oil can be drilled, where factories can be constructed, and now where individuals can drive, these extremists are continuing to drive the quality of life for millions to the level of third-world countries.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;As I recall the planning for the HOT lane, the profit is planned to be used to fund alternatives to the automobile in that corridor&quot;

That seems like a very good way to get about 50 cent for every dollar put in.  It&#039;s almost if our transportation officials are trying to create funding problems by encouraging this complexity, i.e tolls funding ferry lines and trains.

I suppose this is all an expired argument at this point.  It&#039;s a go with HOT lanes.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I assume those carpoolers merging on to 680 at Mission will have to drive miles in traffic before they have an access point to the HOV lane, only to find that lane is fully congested.

Since our state seems to have extraordinarily creative ways to acquire revenue, forgive me if I just run down the bond and funding measures this time around and reject every single one of them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Matt Artz!

I have a recommendation for you regarding your blog.

I always hear so much about these &quot;ELECTION-POLLS,&quot; and how they lean one way or the another. One day they reflect one thing and the next day they project something else.  Sometimes, I wonder how trustworthy they are because 1) I know that polls can be manipulated to get certain desired results and 2) I&#039;ve never even had the chance to participate in one of these polls. Where do they poll these people?

Matt, you should post some Tri-City-Beat Polls. You can have your local races and the national races too, even the props. Lets see how close our polls are to the November 4th results. KRON 4 is a good example to use.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I agree with Walter on this one. (Amazing) Why would we put in car pool lanes then add a HOT lanes and charge even more. This is funded by the tax payers - let us all use it. Also, why not take the money and just finish BART to San Jose - then we won&#039;t be needing more lanes.]]></description>
