THey took YUUR JOB

[jawright]

Yeah, I was still living in FL at the time. There was supposed to be a light rail going up in Orlando, but Disney is blocking it since they want it going straight from the airport to Disney instead of stopping at Universal or Sea World as well.

Which really pi$$es me off, since I take I-4 to and from Orlando a lot. Anyone who's ever driven I-4 (especially from around 2-7pm) would tell you it's obvious that Central Florida NEEDS a rail system, at least to serve the I-4 corridor. But here it's all about tourists, not about the people who actually live here.

Which is why I avoided I-4 like the plague. I'd rather take the 408, the turnpike or the 417 to get where I needed to go. I still have that dang E-Pass on my car, too. Hopefully, I'll be back in Orlando in a few years and use it again.

The dang E-Pass works in Illinois on the I-Pass tollways too! Found that out using an I-Pass through an E-Pass tollway in NY.
