I hope Nashville revisits that proposal. I always thought it wasn't the people there being anti-transit but rather not wanting to see it funded the way it was proposed to be.

As for Austin I like this plan. I only wish it were more ambitious. Every city in Texas is due for a transit expansion plan, IMO. Houston's latest was less than exciting. I wish San Antonio would get a rail system going there.
