(I expect to post tonite). Thanks. I actually just returned from the Library with information from "1968-73: The Ten Year Plan at the Halfway Point." I'll let you post first if you have the orignial plan, then add on.

The first impressionis the MTA delivered less to the city relative to its promises, but it had promised more. Then again, the city threw in the TBTA and its surpluses.

The transit advocates should adopt a simple battle cry -- do what you promised in 1968! If the expansion continues full bent for 3-4 more years (or ten years with a "normal" recession in between), and we reach the employment level of 1968, it might even be possible.
