      From: dannyb@panix.com              (tongue only partly in cheek. Oh, and feel free       to replace "Republican" with "Democratic", etc.)              [Cleveland news]              Robust public transit and central location helped bring Republican convention       to tow              Republican officials say that fundraising ability and hotel space were key       factors in picking Cleveland to host its 2016 convention.              But perhaps not far behind came the transportation logistics of dropping 50,000       visitors into town for a few days.              On two key measures - public transit and walkability - Cleveland ranked first       among the six finalists for the 2016 Republican National Convention.        ====       rest:       http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2014/07/robust_public_t       ansit_and_cent.html       _____________________________________________________       Knowledge may be power, but communications is the key        dannyb@panix.com       [to foil spammers, my address has been double rot-13 encoded]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
