Is anyone not talking about regional transportation in Michigan right now? It’s not just the transportation people talking about it anymore either. Just last week, I was doing an interview on an energy efficiency program for homes – houses – and the challenges of regional transportation came up. And while the buzz might just be reaching a tipping point locally, the amazing thing is that the conversation has been going on a national scale for some time.
Proposals Gone Wild
So many proposals, so little time – what’s a girl to do? Next week, everyone in Michigan will feel like the belle of the ball with their dance card absolutely full of suiters wanting an answer.
“What do you think of green energy standards, darling? I must know.”
Imagining a Michigan Epilogue
I just finished John Irving’s most recent book, In One Person, which was not at all about Michigan, but (unsurprisingly) got me thinking about Michigan all the same. One line in particular did, anyway:
“Perhaps you need to have your world change, your entire world, to understand why anyone would write an epilogue.”
