I totally agree but have to say that's only part of the solution. That's even truer if economics & politics make the creation of a truly good transit system unlikely before most of us are old & gray. I mean how realistic is it for anyone to expect to see the Red Line extended to West LA, much less SaMo, before the year 2020, or whatever?
So unless the city's poor reputation is resting entirely on something like the weakness of its transit system, what do we do in the meantime?
I know one thing: if more ppl in the city were as ticked off at how seedy it is as a lot of outsiders appear to be, there would be less NIMBYism & a lot more ppl saying, damn it, this town needs an extreme makeover ASAP!
