	♥ 4:01pm Stanley: Bit of a mad dash to change platforms but I made it. Hi David.
	♥ 4:03pm doctorjazz: Hi David and fellow riders!
	4:06pm melinda: Hi!
	♥ 4:07pm David D: Greetings Stanley, Doc, and Melinda!
	♥ 4:08pm doctorjazz: Love and Happiness slipped in this Westbound Train me'thinks...
	♥ 4:08pm Uncle Michael: Stop that train...
	♥ 4:10pm David D: Screeeeetch!
	♥ 4:12pm Webhamster Henry: Im Westen, Nichts Neues.
	4:13pm hilmar: Auch im Osten trägt man Westen...
	♥ 4:14pm Uncle Michael: I think I need to catch a Westbound Number Nine.
	4:19pm still b/p: Just for the hell of it in mass transit matters (just looked at some pics of these this afternoon in a months old Globe magazine, but I saw them growing up), on some trip to Boston I gotta ride the Pullman Standard trolley cars still in use on one line. Designed in the 30s, put into service in the 40s, still rollin'. I remember reading years ago how MBTA mechanics had to go DIY to improv and replicate things and rely on long experience, because there ain't been no supplier for some parts on those vintage cars for many moons.
	♥ 4:23pm David D: All transit matters here - thanks still b/p! Greetings Henry, Hilmar, Michael: Neue Westen für alle!
	4:30pm still b/p: That's good, because I don't think the trolleys really get in subway tunnels, and I don't want to get all of us into an Above v. Below Ground fan punch-up here like a bunch of soccer hooligans.
	4:35pm glenn: streetcar or trolley?
	♥ 4:37pm doctorjazz: Onda Vaga track fun!
	♥ 4:38pm David D: I grew up wondering why the Subway was above ground so often. Anyhow, share those tracks, I say!
	4:38pm still b/p: Don't know the protocol of nomenclature. Call 'em trolleys here: www.bostonglobe.com...
	4:39pm glenn: streetcars have tracks and metal wheels. trolleys have rubber tires.
	♥ 4:40pm Sem Chumbo: Good evening, David, Subway-ers. Cooking and listening, sounds pretty great.
	♥ 4:42pm David D: We have lots of streetcars here usually called trams in "Internationalese"/English or Straßenbahn in German. All very confusing. Nothing trolley-like though.
	♥ 4:42pm David D: Thanks, Sem - welcome aboard!
	4:47pm still b/p: There are trolleys and trolley buses with rubber tires. But plenty of both trolleys and streetcars back in the day were metal wheels on tracks. Now we're gonna rumble about transit systems after all!
	4:49pm Parq: Still, you cannot believe how I came to hate those things in my five years in Boston. If they are still running on one line, I feel sorry for the folks on that line.
	4:53pm still b/p: Because they were slow, breakdowny and uncomfortable? They got the heat and AC now, but still slow.
	4:53pm glenn: the biggest problem with streetcars is the cars in front of them, for the most part.
	4:55pm Parq: Also ugly. You forgot ugly.
	4:55pm Parq: I remember a shudder when seeing them in a movie set in Montreal -- Duddy Kravitz, I think.
	4:56pm glenn: great movie.
	♥ 4:56pm Webhamster Henry: I'm terrified of the Amsterdam trams - they come up rather suddenly on narrow streets!
	4:56pm glenn: and a pretty good book. mordecai richler wa brilliant.
	♥ 4:57pm Webhamster Henry: Not that I've been there in the last 20 years!
	♥ 4:57pm Webhamster Henry: @glenn worth it for the Bar Mitzvah movie!
	5:06pm northguineahills: w00h00, a pledger!
	♥ 5:10pm David D: Yes, thanks again to Kuba for being the first Subway pledger!
	5:10pm northguineahills: He should reward himself w/ a trip to Havana!
	5:18pm melinda: I like this song. First heard the melody as Leave Her Johnny, Leave Her on a sea shanty album my family had.
	♥ 5:20pm David D: I'm always amazed to rediscover familiar melodies in completely different songs, often in different languages. Or sometimes it just sounds familiar and I can't quite place my finger on it.
	♥ 5:20pm David D: Speaking of the region, ngh, how are things clearing up?
	5:20pm melinda: Me too.
	♥ 5:21pm Stanley: Ah, Aly Bain. Scotland's finest. Mucho enjoying.
	5:22pm melinda: Although it's less surprising with the traditional American and British Isles tunes.
	5:22pm northguineahills: I shouldn't have liked The Green Fields of America, but I really did, almost had a later 70s Fairport sound.
	♥ 5:23pm coelacanth∅: greetings David and continental Freedom Riders
	5:24pm melinda: I dig banjo.
	♥ 5:25pm doctorjazz: reminded me of Peter Stamfel...
	5:26pm northguineahills: Hopefully, all of the debris will be picked up soon (they been doing little by little each week, but fallen trees are expensive to move, and I think FEMA is finally is providing money for pickup, as the city has nearly broken its bank cleaning up already. I nearly hit a large branch that rolled from a pile of debris last night. There are still utility workers out everywhere, but now I suspect they are getting the infrastructure back to normal rather then rush patch jobs I witnessed earlier. Thanks!
	♥ 5:27pm David D: Greetings, coelacanth∅, Stanley, and everyone else!
	♥ 5:30pm David D: @NGH: Glad to hear things are moving along in any case. It is bound to take a long time to get it all right again.
	5:50pm geezerette: West Coast Blues! I got 'em! Hello, David & gang!
	♥ 5:53pm David D: Good evening, Geezerette!
	♥ 5:54pm David D: (Or afternoon)
	♥ 6:00pm doctorjazz: Great set!
	♥ 6:04pm David D: Thanks!
	6:04pm northguineahills: I knew this was Zorn, this is the album that introduced me to Morricone!
	♥ 6:07pm David D: That is fantastic - and fitting, as it is also the album that apparently introduced a lot of people to Zorn.
	♥ 6:09pm Webhamster Henry: I actually saw this movie only in German, titled "Spiel mir das Lied von Tod!"
	6:10pm geezerette: Agree with DocJazz, great set! Great film too!
	6:11pm geezerette: I want this album!
	♥ 6:12pm doctorjazz: (I have the Zorn on an old vinyl album...)
	♥ 6:13pm David D: Henry: Have you spent a lot of time in Germany?
	♥ 6:13pm doctorjazz: (and an 'unauthorized' download of him playing it live...)
	♥ 6:14pm David D: And thanks, Geezerette!
	6:49pm northguineahills: Thanks David, I gotta leave work in a bit, should have left a while ago.
	♥ 6:50pm David D: Thanks for listening and have a great night!
	♥ 8:30pm coelacanth∅: (belated) Thanks David!
