LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Comments

First Thursday was less annoying 10-12 years ago, I would agree. Actually a lot has changed here in the last 10-12 years.......some of which is probably great for the city and some of which (vis a vis a lot of the current bullshit)......we are deluged with transplants many of whom want to make their "Own Private Portland " based upon some yuppie or hipster bullshit. Welcome to San Francisco in another 10 years

In response to the mercury clip about funding for the "bike-share" program.

Anyone remember the prior "bike-share" program in which (I believe they were) yellow bikes left around for people to ride and leave for someone else. They didn't even last long enough for me to remember what color they were. Almost instantly they were locked up (but still their same color), or spray-painted another color and locked up. No longer "communal". Besides with the meth-head population nowadays they could probably chop up and sell every communal bike within a few days.

I think it doesn't matter about funding FOR the bikes, how would the city keep a hold on all the communal bike so that they stay communal?

oh this isn't posting a letter to the editor, it's comment....oh well maybe it will magically appear in the letters-to-the-editor spot anyway.
