In Our Dreams…..


Mr. Koo works near Olympic and Bundy and lives in Van Nuys. A distance of 14 miles.It took him 90 minutes to get home last night. That means he was traveling at an average rate of 6 miles an hour.

There is a critical need to expand the feeble range of the LA Metro Subway system.

It seems that there is now at least an understanding that Angelenos need a CHOICE, whether or not to ride a train from downtown to Beverly Hills and then to Santa Monica.

We live in 2008. This is not 1985, 1965 or 1945. The old mentality of “Everyone loves their cars” combined with “Only maids rides buses” is fast giving way to the reality that many maids drive cars, and many physicians would like to get to work faster by riding a train.

I don’t love my car. I love my life, and I love being able to get somewhere fast without sitting in traffic and contributing to the meltdown of our planet with fossil fuels.

    Andrew, who needs a law when you have intelligent people. I have never lived more than a few miles from work. You want a nice house and your work area is too expensive – work harder. but if you choose to live in van nuys, the land of the fat desk hen, so you can have a three bed two bath melenthen house, do not complain about the commute when for the same money you could have a condo on the westside and get poon and not listen to john and ken.

    That’s right. How stupid of someone to earn money and have to commute to their job. You should enact a law that requires everyone to work within 500 feet of their residence, so we could eliminate traffic.

    who the hell works on olympic and bundy and lives in van nuys? I assume Mr. Koo has a burning desire not to get laid ever and if he does, it will be by the fat chicks at the ralphs on van nuys and magnolia. Dude, either live on the westside or move to bakersfied.

    So true. However, in 1945, Mr. could have made it to Bundy and Olympic using the city’s streetcars. After the mid 1950s, not so much.
