Sound Off: Stoplight timing
The point of the ill-timed lights on 23rd is to create an illusion of congestion to try to get people to support the SLT.

Railroad enthusiasts celebrate National Train Day at Santa Fe Depot
12k people commute from Lawrence to KC every day. Put them on a train and there suddenly is enough traffic at Union Station in KC to warrant expanded bus service. And for those who work farther east, they can hop off at the stadium complex and grab bus service from there.
It would work, but obviously the trains have to be there first, and they have to be on time (meaning having priority over freight on shared rail).

Higher education officials say concealed carry on campus probably inevitable in the future
Maybe it'd be easier to fence the campus and set up metal detectors at the gates.

Railroad enthusiasts celebrate National Train Day at Santa Fe Depot
If we'd get commuter rail set up between Lawrence and KC (and should be between Manhattan and Independence, MO), we'd have enough passenger traffic to warrant a newsstand and café at the depot.

Sound Off: License stickers
If you get a thick enough stack of stickers, they peel right off. It's good to not let them build up more than three deep or so.

Wicked Broadband project seeks $500,000 city grant; downtown hotel project seeks adjustment to incentives package; historical society seeks $20k for new exhibit
So if Compton doesn't build his hotel, maybe the lot can be converted to greenspace and we can again have an outdoor movie venue downtown.

Sound Off: License stickers
Last year I neglected to put my new sticker on before the first of the next month. I got a ticket for it on the first. I got it dismissed the same day, but still. I'd wanted to clean the plate and remove both old stickers before putting on the new one, but hadn't gotten around to it. Now I have old sticker peeking out from beneath the new one.
