blasphemy!

I don't know if they are unprofitable. The capital corridor and the san joaquins are always packed. Also not everybody can afford a car or have a car big enough to take the whole family and luggage someplace.

I think they should build both the XTS and the new SLS STS DTS whatever they want to call it. I think there is a market for both. I know people say the XTS is directly competetive with buick but back in the 90s Cadillac has an SLS and an STS with different options and touring suspension vs more traditional suspension. Heck, even in 1985, we had a choice of standard or "touring suspension" or the Seville. Ours had a nice "touring suspension" badge on the trunk.

In California, almost all passenger rail that remains inside of our borders is operated by the State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and not AMTRAK. Caltrans also has thruway motor coaches to reach more destinations and our trains are some of the busiest in America. If we had high speed here, it would help out so much.

When was the last time they made a Bus there too? 1986?

Also the CTSv was an auto transmission at the ring and it was a one-off drive attempt by a professional driver at the end of a session I believe.

All I have to say is remember what Fritz said "He works for me"

Trying to market the Impala as Chevrolet's flagship sedan.

This is happening in California in the SF Peninsula. They don't want the train. It makes no sense to me, they have a dedicated corridor for the train already (CalTrain).

It's nice when you can debate viewpoints that are not the same as your own.

The one post in there has some good questions though.

I'm calling BS Anthony Sullivan! There is no way that worked!

Story Link By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer NASCAR said Jeremy Mayfield once again tested positive for methamphetamine and asked the federal judge who lifted the driver's drug suspension to reinstate the ban. The positive result from a July 6 random test was included in a U.S. District Court filing Wednesday that included an affidavit from Mayfield's stepmother, who claimed she personally witnessed the driver using methamphetamine at least 30 times over seven years. Mayfield once again denied ever using the illegal drug. "I don't trust anything NASCAR does, anything (program administrator) Dr. David Black does, never have, never will," Mayfield told The Associated Press in a phone interview. Lisa Mayfield said she first saw the driver use meth in 1998 at a race shop in Mooresville, N.C. She said Mayfield cooked his own drugs until the ingredient pseudoephedrine was taken off the shelves and it became too difficult for Mayfield to obtain the ingredients. She said her stepson then began to purchase meth from others. "Between 1998 and 2005, I am personally aware that Jeremy used methamphetamines often," she said in her affidavit. "I was concerned about his heavy use and talked to his father about it. I saw Jeremy use methamphetamine by snorting it up his nose at least 30 times during the 7 years I was around him. Jeremy used methamphetamine not only in my presence, but also when we were both in the presence of others." Mayfield angrily contested his stepmother's account. "Now they got this lying (expletive) to tell lies about me, someone I am embarrassed even uses the Mayfield name. She's tried everything she can do to get money out of me, I won't help her, so I guess she found a way to get money from NASCAR by giving them an affidavit full of lies." In the affidavit, Lisa Mayfield said she married Mayfield's father in a 2003 ceremony immediately following Mayfield's marriage to his wife, Shana. Lisa Mayfield said the driver told her he used meth before a season-ending NASCAR awards ceremony while driving for Ray Evernham. She also said Mayfield used meth during a 1999 trip to Myrtle Beach that preceded a race at nearby Darlington Raceway. "We left Myrtle Beach and traveled to Darlington for the race," she wrote. "I saw Jeremy using methamphetamine again when we reached Darlington." Mayfield was suspended May 9 for failing a random drug test conducted eight days earlier. NASCAR later said he tested positive for methamphetamine. He sued, and U.S. District Court Judge Graham Mullen issued an injunction July 1 that allowed Mayfield to return to competition. Mullen based his decision on Mayfield's argument that the testing system is flawed and there was a reasonable likelihood of a false positive. He also gave NASCAR the right to test Mayfield at any time. NASCAR did just that July 6 at Mayfield's home and said in its filings that the "A" sample had levels of methamphetamine consistent with habitual users who consume high doses. "My only comment is that's their result," Mayfield attorney John Buric said. "But what I want you to keep in mind is that test was performed by the defendants in the case. Aegis Laboratories and Dr. Black are defendants in this case. I don't know if NASCAR has the right to ask the defendant to test Jeremy's urine sample. It ought to be done independently, but NASCAR didn't do that." On July 6, Mayfield also had a second test at a lab chosen by his attorneys. Buric said that test came back negative but was sent back to the lab Wednesday for "reconfirmation" after the NASCAR test results were received. The filing also claims Mayfield and his attorneys have failed to select a qualified laboratory to test the backup "B" sample. Buric acknowledged the two sides are still haggling over a lab for the B sample and said NASCAR rejected the lab they picked. Mayfield's lawyers also filed their response Wednesday to NASCAR's motion last week to overturn Mullen's injunction. The brief, which didn't include the results of Mayfield's latest drug case, argued NASCAR was trying to "fashion the rules to their liking" by not meeting the requirements needed to overturn the ruling. Mayfield's lawyers argued Mullen had correctly ruled that Mayfield faced irreparable harm from a suspension and doubts remain about the accuracy of NASCAR's testing policy. "NASCAR is absolutely corrupted by power, and it's untenable motion to stay should be denied," his lawyers wrote.

wasnt that what geo was for?

As somebody that has chronic illness as well, I am glad to see that you are living life as normal as possible and you keep receiving good news from the doctors!

FAIL! Besides, you are not from California.

THE CHALLENGE HAS BE ISSUED AND DUALLY NOTED! (I am proclaiming myself the anointed one in charge of arbitrating design-offs)

Then if you cant do a contract with him, the next best thing to do is send him a confirming memo to his home address where it says in the memo on what day and time you made the verbal agreement and what it entails. Then you put in the memo "if you have any changes to this agreement, please reply by mail in 10 days" If you can, try and send it either registered mail or some kind of delivery confirmation. Maybe even send it fedex or ups and require a signature. I think USPS may do signature confirmation.

Make sure you have a written contract with him on the payments, and it may even be beneficial to have it notarized in case you do need to go to court.

I have a fujitsu scanner at work an I love it.
