Any thoughts.Update: I may not be that nuts with this idea:http://www.baynews9.com/content/36/2006/4/1/151606.htmlhttp://tampabay.bizjournals.com/tampabay/stories/2006/04/03/story3.html?page=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sprtsfn627 Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Looks like from just USF, to MOSI, to Busch Gardens, to the Hospital will cost 8 million, and they only have 2 right now. But it could be pretty interesting. If done right, it could remove the need for some of the buses on campus. Hopefully USF at least looks into it.

Just doesn't ever seem like the brighest way to get voter's support.And then there is that episode of the Simpsons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that would be cheap and affordable mass transportation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
