I guess the thing is, I'm looking at it from the side of the people who live in the El's shadow. I like Els, but that is irrelevant. You speak of the people who ride the line but you have nothing to say about the plight of the people who live and work beneath it. Walk along its length, and see how many would object to its being torn down. Their answers might surprise you. True knowledge comes not from books or quoting a bunch of facts. It comes from living. You see the El only from trackside. I see its impact from beneath the tracks. That is where my "facts" come from for that is where I know the truth lies.
