Neither you nor Bob owe anyone any apologies for anything you wrote -- not in quantity and certainly not in quality. For those of us who are affected greatly by the decisions about CTPP data, it is very helpful to understand some of the background -- even the disputes -- about this very sensitive issue. When I go back to my MPO Committees and Board to explain that we will now have to spend several tens of thousands of dollars for an expanded O-D study next year, I definitely want to be able to answer any questions they may have -- especially because for the past three years, we have anticipated receiving useful data from the CTPP. I think a full and public airing of these issues is exactly the kind of information which SHOULD be part of the discussions on this List; and to those who left in a huff -- good riddance to narrow minds. My thanks to you and to Bob for your candor, and I would appreciate it if you would continue such discussions on the List where I can read them and try to better understand the large and small issues involved.
