Oops!  You're right.  Thanks for noticing.
There is also a stop or two along 9th on the way to the freeway, as
I recall, but there isn't much along 9th that people would find
interesting.

I think you mean Mission instead of Market.  And it does stop every
block or two from 9th to 1st (the Transbay terminal) which is the
direction that you would likely be riding it.

If you wish to visit more than one "attraction", MUNI is still 
[probably] a requirement.  (Or a cab, they are quite reasonable.)

I would take MUNI to CalTrain at any time unless you enjoy long
walks through mediocre wharehouse district.  I don't have any
problems with the area at night but then I am a not [apparently]
infirm male who knows the area.  If any of those do not apply,
you might want to consider the bus or a cab.

Organization: Northern Telecom Inc, Mountain View, CA
Date: Thu, 5 Nov 1992 19:29:00 GMT

Santa Clara County:

	Measure A  passed 54.1% yes

San Mateo County Advisory Measures:

	B(ART)     passed 74.6% yes
	C(alTrain) passed 77.2% yes

California State:

	Prop 156   failed 52.0% no
	Prop 157   failed 61.0% no

President:
	
	Clinton (duh!)

It's interesting that the new SC Measure A won by about the same
margin as the existing SC Measure A, but that it was vigorously
opposed by Zoe Lofgren's with her $100,000 "blitz" campaign to
defeat it.  The existing Measure A was virtually unopposed and
passed by a similar margin in much better economic times.  The
new Measure A is a 1/2 cent 20-year county sales tax to fund 
transit (primarily rail transit) throughout the county.  Among
other things, it includes $183 million to upgrade CalTrain to an
electrified 100-train-per-day service.

In San Mateo County, voters have made their desire for improved
Peninsula Rail transit clear.  Measure C's passage by a slightly
wider margin than Measure B comes as a pleasant surprise to many
peninsula transit activists.  Measure B's passage gives the SM
County Board of Supes the green light to negotiate with BART to
join the district and to extend BART throughout the county--all
subject to another voter approval.  (However, Measure B was not
needed to do this anyway.)  Measure C's passage indicated that
San Mateo County voters would like to see CalTrain upgraded to
BART-level service and extended to downtown San Francisco.

I think it's too bad 156 lost, but that's the way it goes...
It had money for lots of rail (intercity & urban/regional) all
over the state.  In our area, BART, CalTrain, Muni metro and
Santa Clara County Light Rail would have gotten money for
things like extensions, rolling stock, and grade-separations.
I think the LA area was the biggest loser with 156's defeat.
I don't know for sure, but I suspect that 156 was killed by
non-urban area voters that didn't think they'd benefit much and 
overall economic concerns.

The defeat of 157 is seen as a victory by those who don't like
the idea of auto/road subsidies.  It would have mandated that
the state would have to take over operation and maintenance
of toll roads from private operators after 35 years and that
the state couldn't charge tolls to cover its costs.

Clinton is seen by transit advocates and professionals as being
far more friendly to transit and inter-city rail than Bush.  We
can expect a reversal of the Reagan/Bush policies that threatened
to kill/starve mass transit and Amtrak.  Clinton has often spoke
of being interested in pursuing high-speed rail networks like
those in Japan and western European countries.

If nothing else, if employees could do all their USENET reading/posting
on their way to and from work, it might free up lots of work time
to do "useful" things.    :)  :)

Oracle runs a shuttle, but it's cooperatively funded with others in the
Redwood Shores region, I believe, runs about once an hour, when it runs
at all, and only serves the 'commute' direction, IE, there is no serious
effort being made to service people whom might either arrive or depart
in the middle of the day.

Personally, I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to get onto an LRV at
West Portal, in San Francisco, and ride down the middle of 101 at decent
speeds, for 30 to 45 minutes, until I'm at work.

I've heard of European concerns - in particular, one engineering giant in
Sweden - which provides a special car for their employees, so that their
employees can log in and work en route, to and from. This sounds like it
could be fun, but it wouldn't be very cost-effective unless the employees
in question were nuclear reactor or spacecraft design engineers, IMHO, and
in any case, such a radical solution shouldn't be necessary.

this is the caltrain shuttle; similar other shuttles run between
caltrain stations and peninsula employers.

I haven't heard this.  I'd be surprised if it was true, because as

Keith, I'm a programmer, and have worked at home one or more days a week
for about 4 years.  I can't at the moment, though, because I'm writing a
program with several other people, and we share source code stored on a LAN
(local area network).  Without a very high-speed modem (38,400 baud), it's
not feasible for me to access files that are stored on the LAN from home; a
modem like this costs a lot (> $1,000), and of course, you need one on each
end.  There's been talk in the past about building a prototype high-speed
phone network in the Bay Area; I think Gore is in favor of this.  If this
existed, not only could all we download movies from the video store via the
phone lines, but those of us with LAN umbilicals could work from home.

The three computer companies I've worked for have been very
telecommute-friendly; the more you're willing to work, the better as far as
they're concerned.

There was far more pro-measure A advertising than anti.  There
were slick mailers as well as radio ads.  In addition, the
1984 version meant a tax increase, while the 1992 measure
just continued taxes at their current level.  I also think
that people didn't realize where all the money was going or
how massive the subsidies to the LRT really are.
Also, business had an interest in backing Measure A (I think most
of the campaign money came from Santa Clara county businesses),
since they generally don't pay much sales tax.  The question
now is whether they will be able to circumvent the 2/3 vote
requirement for new taxes.  From what I've read, courts have
already approved the loophole in other lawsuits over similar
matters.

They both indicate that when asked if they want something without
being asked to pay for it, people will usually say yes.

Greetings!

	As you folks probably know, Santa Clara County's Measure A has
passed.  Today's Mercury News reported that Rod Diridon et. al. are planning
to get together _immediately_ and discuss the implementation of the Measure.

	I will be digging for more details on this matter.  I would like to
attend the meeting but don't yet know when or where it will be held.  Does
anyone else have any information?

Many banks were closed as well as union factories too. The number of
government workers, however is a suprising amount. Someone must have
the statistic out there? 25%? or something like that?

I was under the impression that the land between the rail line and
highway 101 was owned by the airport, but I'm not certain.
Who owns most of the land west of the rail line I'm not sure.
Isn't it housing there?  don't remember.

Hello everybody.  I'm doing a paper on telecommuting
and there seems to be a lot of literature on how
good it is as a viable option for the regular twice
daily commute to and from work.  The only article
I have concerning the bad side of telecommuting is
an article which predates the California Telecommuting
Pilot Project (CTPP).  Can someone tell me the major
hindrances today to a more "telecommuting" society?
Thanks.
