One thought on “Curt Smith: A skeptical but hopeful view of the Red Line

  1. For someone touting himself as hopeful, it seems that much of your skepticism could be held in reserve a bit longer rather than trotting out issues that are unsurprising for any new service. Writing a column like this in early October when paid service is underway makes far more sense.
