How can you draw a parallel between the clown you're talking about and
a country that manages to do things right.
I am willing to bet that, unlike The Big Dig, Bechtel/Parsons
Brinckerhoff didn't go near that Swedish project. That's why it turned
out according to plan.
Also, many of the newer C20 trains use Bombardier Transportation
components, design and manufacturing. A wholly owned subsidiary of
Bombardier Inc...a Canadian company. (I take a bow, hosers)
One report I read is that they have hired thugs to manage graffiti
artists...'security personnel'...love it!

It would appear that some of those huge columns and supports were left
there as they found them polishing that great big round one. That
whole country is rock formations. In fact, one of the world's most
incredible blue pearl granites comes from a quarry very close to the
Swedish border in Norway. Baltic Browns come from.. the..ermm Baltic?
They call it r=F8ck. <G>

Somebody had too much Public Money. e-mail the link to the mayor of
Portland, Oregon; he's always looking for ways to raid the Water Department
for money and Public 'Art' is one of his favorites.
