Maybe I should get a rebate. Steve's evening route is just as exciting. They had a lovely chat as the train was boarding for departure. Several boarding passengers did. But 93 Steve didn't have enough nicotine in his system just yet.
Additional police are certainly a welcome sight for visitors concerned with lawlessness.
Yesterday I watched 2 state police chat on the platform, just outside the glass doors, while a young lady lit up a cigarette no more than 5 feet from them. Maybe it is only against the law to smoke if an MBTA employee does not light your cigarette. On the other end of the same platform was a 'guard' watching workers construct. Any of you who have responsibility for operations within the MBTA system should be embarrassed. You should be embarrassed because you have made no genuine effort at enforcing the existing laws regarding smoking, and by extension, customers can have little confidence that you are enforcing any other safety laws.
