Plus, the way LA's growing, by the time it's complete there'll be plenty of new cars to take up the spaces vacated by this project.

First of all, Selran's right. But also, if the new systems work well enough, we might actually change the way Californians feel about their cars. It is common for NYers not to own a car; it's very uncommon in L.A. and many other parts of California. Yeah, we're more spread out, but I for one would love to have public transportation as an option.

This is something I've been oh-so-gradually seeing us move towards for the past 20+ years. Ten more is nothing. And as I said, I'm hoping to see a difference in just a few.
