very confused by the 497 00:25:01,399 --> 00:25:04,520 process we've admitted that we hounded 498 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,840 you guys with emails and phone 499 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,440 calls

508 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,720 submitted it um we didn't know what to 509 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,559 expect it's been 20 years since she 510 00:25:35,559 --> 00:25:37,520 passed we honestly did not know what to 511 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,080 expect when we went down this journey 512 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,360 but I'll tell you one of the most 513 00:25:40,360 --> 00:25:42,720 amazing parts of this journey was 514 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,320 walking around with my wife seeing if we 515 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,760 could get community support and finding 516 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,480 people that told us stories of their 517 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,840 experiences with Marlene firstand 518 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,080 accounts all over you know mostly in 519 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,360 that Union Street corridor north of it I 520 00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:01,679 mean the amount of people we ran into 521 00:26:01,679 --> 00:26:05,159 that either used to work there or had 522 00:26:05,159 --> 00:26:07,679 childhood memories there or knew her on 523 00:26:07,679 --> 00:26:10,399 a on a friendship basis it was kind of 524 00:26:10,399 --> 00:26:12,440 remarkable for that much time to have 525 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,039 passed and here people have these 526 00:26:15,039 --> 00:26:18,520 wonderful stories about her and um I 527 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,760 just think based on on her contributions 528 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,080 to the community we've presented the 529 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,039 information I just think I think it's on 530 00:26:26,039 --> 00:26:28,360 in my opinion and obviously I'm slightly 531 00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:30,200 biased cuz it's our proposal I think 532 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,480 it's a no-brainer to honor her she was 533 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,360 there a long long time and people still 534 00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:37,640 remember her even 20 years after her 535 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,360 passing so I appreciate your guys' 536 00:26:40,360 --> 00:26:42,080 patience with us when we were bothering 537 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,840 you with emails and phone calls and I 538 00:26:44,840

too because everybody involved in 826 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,400 Automotive Safety is going to tell you 827 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,720 the first thing that speed is the main 828 00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:19,839 factor in accidents so it ain't really 829 00:38:19,839 --> 00:38:23,280 safe for them neither but the whole 830 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,680 point is I think of this this bizarre 831 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,119 construction streets I mean you got 832 00:38:30,119 --> 00:38:31,800 they're they're wider than goddamn 833 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,319 airport runways and there ain't even any 834 00:38:34,319 --> 00:38:37,520 caruse on them if you look even during 835 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,040 what would should be Peak business now 836 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:43,680 is they're empty and no bike lines 80 837 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,760 foot wide streets or some damn thing and 838 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:49,480 you can't find 10 ft for a bike lane the 839 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,920 bicycle vastly 840 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,720 Superior in every possible measurement 841 00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:57,720 to a car 842 00:38:57,720 --> 00:38:59,079 you got to make you know you should be 843 00:38:59,079 --> 00:39:01,680 making room for the good transportation 844 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,800 and taking room away from the bad 845 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,000 transportation and that is 846 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,880 cause I would say just narrow the G of 847 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,319 streets I know what you're going to say 848 00:39:13,319 --> 00:39:14,319 well we don't want to have any 849 00:39:14,319 --> 00:39:16,400 congestion I'm here to tell you 850 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:20,040 congestion is exactly what you want why 851 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,200 because the cause will have to slow down 852 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:24,440 that will make things safer for 853 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,200 everybody and it will give the stupid 854 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,839 ass car drivers incentive to dump their 855 00:39:30,839 --> 00:39:35,000 motorized coffins for 856 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,160 clean Progressive Transportation which 857 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,240 is 858 00:39:40,240 --> 00:39:41,960 bicycles 859 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,680 um why do you doing this why do you have 860 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,160 these these well I will tell you 861 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,359 why your brains have been freaking 862 00:39:51,359 --> 00:39:54,119 kidnapped by the automotive Lobby they 863 00:39:54,119 --> 00:39:56,560 have been turned to Mush you think you 864 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,720 buy in to this crap that you're not 865 00:39:59,720 --> 00:40:01,400 supposed to be able to get anywhere 866 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,880 without a car well you could if you put 867 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,829 the cars 868 00:40:06,839 --> 00:40:14,000 away the automotive antic culture is a 869 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:33,109 cult snap out of it 870 00:40:33,119 --> 00:40:35,920 our the justification for supporting 871 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,880 Israel has been as the morally correct 872 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,119 thing to do and Israel is the only 873 00:40:42,119 --> 00:40:43,520 friend we 874 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,079 have now think about that in the context 875 00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:48,319 of what's happening 876 00:40:48,319 --> 00:40:51,359 today uh the reason we don't have any 877 00:40:51,359 --> 00:40:53,640 friends in the Middle East because they 878 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,000 support of 879 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,280 Israel and what this isra will be doing 880 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:00,760 they've been using our support and 881 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,560 weapons to commit genocide and force 882 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:07,680 moving of all the uh Palestinians with a 883 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,240 75 goal year goal of controlling all the 884 00:41:11,240 --> 00:41:14,079 territory from the Mediterranean from 885 00:41:14,079 --> 00:41:16,720 the Jordan River to the Mediterranean 886 00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:20,119 Sea and now they're expanding into 887 00:41:20,119 --> 00:41:22,400 Lebanon uh you are familiar in the last 888 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,440 few days Israel has booby trapped 889 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,599 electronic devices 890 00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:31,160 with explosives innocent people and 891 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,760 they'll get a call it blows up in their 892 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,960 hand you know think about that do you 893 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,720 think that's going to stop in 894 00:41:39,720 --> 00:41:42,000 Lebanon it's a new kind of terrorism 895 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,560 that's going to happen 896 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,760 everywhere uh years 897 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:51,000 ago a on an airplane a terrorist put 898 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:52,720 some bomb in his 899 00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:56,319 shoes when you go to the airport now you 900 00:41:56,319 --> 00:41:58,760 have to uh take off your shoes to make 901 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,160 sure there's not a bomb in them when you 902 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,319 go through security in the 903 00:42:03,319 --> 00:42:06,319 future you can probably expect your cell 904 00:42:06,319 --> 00:42:10,000 phone to have to get checked for bombs 905 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,720 the same way your shoes might be checked 906 00:42:11,720 --> 00:42:14,599 for bombs so what Israel is 907 00:42:14,599 --> 00:42:16,319 starting 908 00:42:16,319 --> 00:42:19,160 uh Lebanon is in solidarity with 909 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:20,319 protecting the 910 00:42:20,319 --> 00:42:23,400 Palestinians and uh a resolution from 911
