There the pedestrians and bicyclists get run over by the cars, all three of the above get run over by the buses, and all four above get run over by the trams. And nobody cares. Here's an example of a bus and train running into each other in Houston:

I do hope to make it to Allschwil in two years, for the first time. Sounds like you had a good time!

Houston! HA! Tell me about it! I live in the north-west part of Harris county, about 30 miles away from downtown Houston. All that Eric says is true. One thing that illustrates the problem is the horrible "light-rail" system we have here. The light-rail crosses intersections and streets and frequently runs into car and people, and there have been fatalities. Read more about it on Google : https://goo.gl/XGjgV6

I hope to have permanently changed my residence to Colorado by this time next year though, and I won't miss Houston traffic

I also wish to attend the meeting possibly next year or so, once I have the time, as, to paraphrase Clive Barker's Order of Gash mythos ( Well, it was just Halloween ) : "I have such sights to show you..." .

If I attend the meeting next year, it will be my first visit to Europe. I was all set to go to HHC2001 and I had gotten my passport and my plane tickets, but, then 9/11 happened and I haven't flown since

Potentia Saturni tecum semper sit!
