"The numbers are fraudulent," Stogner said of the California High-Speed Rail Authority's ridership projections. "They're off by a mile."
Stogner even went so far as to suggest that authority officials should be made to recite the projections under oath.
Stogner's skepticism of the authority seemed quite prescient just a couple of hours later when the Times' first report on a state audit of the agency hit the Web.

Please let me know how the figures are a "mile off".
I will settle for a quarter of a mile.
Meanwhile, while you prepare for your position of Supervisor:

Dear Mr. Van Ark,
Everyone without a vested interest can see that what would be truly extraordinary is California HSR without catastrophic revenue shortfalls.

Just a thought...perhaps construction on Bay Bridge should be completed before a project this size is even considered?

I really hope Stogner is not trying say he was the leader in this ridership challenge, because I can list a dozen people who were.

"I really hope Stogner is not trying say he was the leader in this ridership challenge, because I can list a dozen people who were."
I am the only Supervisor candidate you can list, and I was the only Supervisor candidate who said No to HSR. That was the only point I was making.
