About 15 years ago I read a story in the Enquirer regarding a potential light-rail project in Cincinnati. The article featured several quotes from local residents including a few that argued that expansion of public transportation was justification for a concealed carry law in Ohio, suggesting that people would need guns to protect themselves if they rode public transportation. The article has stood out to me as a sad commentary on Cincinnati politics ever since. For the sake of the city I hope street-cars and/or light-rail become a reality but I'm not holding my breath...
On an unrelated note - I enjoy reading the Ferry Blog. It's great to see what the three of you are up to these days. Take Care - John
This could be enough to convince me to come back home.

Well, I like it anyway, but if would get you back to town then by all means I'm for it!
