Readers loved the article on Duke University coach Mike Krzyzewski; strongly support high-speed rail; respond to a column about bringing access to technology throughout Dallas; and discuss the merits and faults of daylight saving time.
Like Feinstein, I am a Duke University graduate. Coach K’s fame has made Duke alumni proud. Our pride results not just from his records but more importantly that Coach K demonstrated that the team and the men on the team were the most important part of the coaching puzzle. Some years ago, Coach K signed one of those hand-out celebrity pictures for me. After his signature he added, “Always lead with your heart.” That’s what he did. His records may be broken but his legacy of unselfish leadership will never tarnish.Re: “Get rail back on track — The weekend airport scramble shows why state must make way for more commuter options,” Wednesday Editorials.
Why do we assume that this infrastructure can only be built with private dollars? Government has traditionally built major transportation infrastructure; the interstate highway system wasn’t built by the private sector for profit. Congress needs to partner with populous states like Texas to construct a national high-speed rail network as part of an aggressive project to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve public health and strengthen national security.
First is his important point that this is a socioeconomic problem and not an urban/rural divide problem. Secondly, Lucky goes an important step further by pointing out that the adoption gap is another dimension to the availability problem. Of course, large public telecom providers want to tell you that they have availability ubiquitously across the country, and that includes ubiquitously across Dallas County.
Thank heaven for assuming some sanity remains in Washington, because daylight saving time is insane. In 1762, English inventor John Harrison developed a method for determining longitude. Ever since then, the system has worked marvelously. Time zones roughly correspond to longitude. We can predict with precision when the sun will rise on the same date and in the same place year after year.
