What do you expect from Ron Christie?  You might remember him from such
roles as CEO or the RTA and CEO of ORTA.  That someone indoctrinated
into the RTA's "pave the planet" philosophy could suddenly become an
advocate for effective public transport is quite a joke.  His job is to
take the flack of the Transport Minister who's been cutting public
transport budgets his entire career while spending billions on new
roads.

To clarify my offer: you need to get a genuine BSOD screen on the new
Sydney rail screens.  The offer was, of course, intended to get others
to make similar offers <hint-hint> hence making it quite profitable for
some lucky open source project.
