You want to break the county up into multiple pieces because everything wasn't perfect about bus transportation during the first few days of school?[/quote]

1. Kids standing or sitting in the aisle while a bus is driving down the beltway isn't "everything wasn't perfect." It's dangerous.

2. It's actually not hard to figure it out. You do it in stages. Take it cluster by cluster, school by school. It's eminently doable if you're organized about it. Now I'm sure they weren't organized about it, and that's why we're in this mess, but[b] to throw your hands up and say "oh it's just SOOO difficult, so we should just lower our expectations" is ridiculous[/b].[/quote]

Then it's a good thing that nobody has done that.

All of the kinks will have been worked out in a week or two. This happens every year. Unexpected stuff happens, and the transportation depots figure it out.[/quote]

So you're ok with kids not having seats on the bus for a week or two? Every year? Because I'm not. If my kid didn't have a seat, I'd be livid. [/quote]
