Wow, you're such a big man, Dan.  You know how to make fun of someone's weight.

Dude, this is a dick move and a stupid move.

Brandon, by second thread, Dan was referring to the fact that a thread on the subject matter already exists in the Northeast Forum.

Clues but No Full Account of Order That Turned a N.J. Town Into a Parking Lot

IMHO, this thread should be merged w/the above-one.

Yeah Brandon, you're probably a good guy, but you're a total dick. Am I doing concern trolling correctly?

 Politics is nothing but TMZ stars with a law degree and other sorts of Political education. But everybody in the room claims to be the smart guy in the Capital Office but don't realize their ideas are considered insane to outsiders. I hope State Trans for New Jersey can get their act together and remain functional even though Politics got in the way.

OK Everybody get your act together!

I misread the comment due to other comments I read earlier.  No, I agree this really doesn't need a second thread.

Petty power/ego trip ?
