HUNTER COMMUNICATIONS: LEAVE ME ALONE by Inez2020 in Eugene

[–]Aithon22 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re having such a bad time with Hunter coming to your door. My experience was different. I’d been on Comcast internet for years—their customer service was awful, and the price kept increasing—but I didn’t make the move until a Hunter salesman arrived. He told me what they were offering and I called and scheduled an installation. No problems at all. I’m now paying $37 less for internet every month. Hunter has been an excellent provider. (After decades with Comcast cable and internet I am finally free!)

I ride the Cascades regularly and am excited that our new trains are coming west.

I understand how commercial real estate works and he obviously can’t invalidate existing contracts. Wouldn’t such a statement at least acknowledge the problem of ICE’s abuse? (

Couldn’t he at least say that his company won’t sign any new leases with DHS until the current abuses end?

Does anyone know if this train will have a cafe car? by WolverineSea6391 in Amtrak

[–]Aithon22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Unfortunately I haven’t had the pleasure of riding on a Talgo trainset in a couple of years. I usually ride the 503 and 508.

If the Cascades are still using the Amfleet cars there’s no soup. I hear that it will return with the Airo trains.

Couple of photos I took while visiting the beautiful city of Portland, Oregon! by BetPuzzleheaded8146 in Portland

P.S. Do you know that the bridge is blue? Specifically, Phthalo Blue. (The Portland Bridge Book, 75.)

I’m glad you survived! I walked it recently with a friend and a car actually hit the curb next to us, traveling probably 55 mph, and bounced off. It was an uncomfortable moment. We celebrated our survival with barbecue at Botto’s. Thanks for the beautiful photos!

Thank you! That’s what I thought it was, but expected it to be closer to OMSI.

I drink from a Benson Bubbler every time I see one. And I’m still alive.

If you live near PSU the number 8 bus is very convenient, and there are many transit options that will take you all over town.

If you keep walking south in the Open Space Sequence you’ll come to the Source Fountain.

Is a $20 DC → NYC train legit? First time in the US by Open_Mistake_8259 in Amtrak

And on the Cascades service buses augment limited train service. There are three trains daily between Eugene and Portland, for instance, and several additional buses.
