NARP Blog Welcomes Your Comments

Wednesday, December 05, 2007

NARP is pleased to announce that narprail.org registered users may now post comments to NARP blog entries.  (Entries dating back to September of this year are also comment-enabled.)  We are eager to facilitate lively, fruitful discussions of the future of passenger rail, as well as current events related to our cause.  We hope that these conversations can help us all to become more effective passenger rail advocates.  NARP staff may respond to comments where appropriate.

You do not need to be a NARP member to post comments, but you do have to register with the web site.  When you register, you must agree to the Terms of Service, including the following provisions regarding the blog:

Access to narprail.org entitles you to post comments in response to NARP-generated postings on the Blog.  By registering at this site you agree 1) that all comments will be relevant to the respective posting and 2) not to post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, or that violate any laws.  We reserve the right to permanently block postings from any user who does not abide by the above terms.  NARP reserves the right to remove, edit, or move any messages for any reason.

I, for one, am glad to see this feature implemented!  I hope that it stimulates even more blog entries from NARP staff (not that you have the time!).

Congratulations!!

Just another reason to come by and read this blog more frequently. Thanks to NARP for enabling this feature.

Excellent feature, now that the election is upon us.

BTW, I emailed all the Dem. candidates, asking for their position on Amtrak, and passenger rail in general, and received no substantive replies. Maybe NARP could do better?

I hope this BLOG and the links to My Space, You Tube, etc. encourage a wide dialogue on issues and result in more and better passenger trains and balanced transportation policy. These increasingly popular technologies should help attract a wide variety of ages and interests to a cause that benefits us all.
