My Demise Has Been Greatly Exaggerated

Yep, I am still here, and even kicking! It has been quite some time now, and the only story I can tell is how things have been just this side of frantic. I have told several customers that the amount of work and the number of bids is unprecidented, at least in my memory.

The "Rippers" have obviously been delayed as well, and recently it has seemed that even the good transit agencies have descended to the lows of their "less-than-stellar" brethern. So, what seemed like the onerous task of selecting the lesser of evils for Best overcame any initiative I might have had.

I promise to at least try to do better. There has been many happenings besides big projects. Hedge Funds, for one, have made their way into our conversations. The STB has as well. I know that visits are still occurring to this site, so that is encouraging as well. My efforts will, hopefully, justify more of your visits in the future.

Thanks for your patience over these past months.
