Seattle Transportation Listening Session Notes

RantWoman reproduces recent tweets about the Seattle Transportation Summit including bothering those following the Code for America Summit #cfasummit about why maybe they might care about WA state transportation STUFF.

RantWoman attended the October 14 Transportation Listening Session; RantWoman intends to distill the whole 3 hour exercise in posterior fortitude into concise opinions. This item is mainly blog as filing cabinet including at the bottom a TVW link for video of the whole experience.

' Morning world. checking tweetstream for#WAtranspo #waleg listening session. Totally distracted by #cfasummit chatter

Why should #cfasummit care about latest #WAtranspo #keepusmoving #saveourmetro #fixitthenfundit convo?

Dear #cfasummit, #waleg now trying to solve decades of #watranspo mess in one fall special session push.

Dear #cfasummit, #waleg now trying to solve decades of #watranspo mess. Total #socialmedia opportunity?

Dear #cfasummit, #waleg news flash NOT, via Tim Eyman: People don't like taxes. #watranspo now decades behind.

Dear #waleg, No taxes means #watranspo users taxed in time pollution hassle.
#keepusmoving #saveourmetro. Work together. Play fair.

Dear #waleg, #saveourmetro. #keepusmoving. Work together. Help us all work together, share costs.

Dear Tim Eyman, a few at #watranspo summit are just live meeting junkies and too cheap for cable. #keepusmoving #savemetronow

Dear Tim Eyman, plenty of people at Seattle #watranspo convo came AFTER WORK because we care about our communities, our state.

#Watranspo #waleg Dear Tim Eyman, that legally blind mom who spends 20 hrs /wk instead of 10 commuting, that is a TAX.

#Watranspo #waleg Dear Tim Eyman, 10 more hours / week commute = time tax equal to 25% of wage! mom deserves a better deal!

#WAtranspo RT'ing a bunch of stuff I do not necessarily believe or agree with because possibly important to convo, eg #PPPs
