I can only support the monorail if there's a line from Laramie to the rec. Normally I'd walk my ass up there, but it's like negative igloo degrees outside right now. GET THIS INSTALLED NOW, SCHULTZ :angry:

yeah. great thinking. if it's super duper cold outside i know i'd much rather get on an above ground train type thing as opposed to a below ground heated water transit pool type system. also, did i mention the lazy river is going to have lazer lights and bubble machines throughout.
Plus you can clearly see that there's a stop at dennison and anderson on the Lazy River Map.  Pretty sure that's just behind your apartment complex...

MODS,

I can only support the underground heated water lazy river thing if:

1. There is a station for underground access on the corner of 17th and Laramie

2. They have a "pontoon boat" carpool lane for quicker travel for those of us who can't afford to spend like 45 rough ridin' minutes tubing up to the rec and back

the beauty of the lazy river will be that pdestrians will be able to hop in and hop out when they want. this is directly opposed to any kind of monorail system that will require complete stoppage of all passenges at each "docking station". my engineers have run many preliminary numbers on a variety of industry simulators and all have found lazy river commuting times to be vastly faster than that of the monorail. i'll be sure to take your thoughts into consideration thought. thank you for your input and remember "todays lazy river is tomorrow's future".

LOL, with the way your scope is expanding, you'll never secure funding. 

'fraid Daris will have to choose between lasers/bubbles and heat.  The money just isn't there.

Also, disinfectant/chemicals budget will be less if water is cold.  BUDGET SAVINGS!!!!

Freezing cold, under treated lazy river/ hepatitis river it is!

I support the monorail if there's a stop by the planned 180' Weird Robert Colossus being planned for that open space in front of Anderson.

From what this all sounds like, you might be able to get with the City of Manhattan and try to get this thing rolling as a "stormwater system rehabilitation" project.

I can't believe I'm typing this, but I agree with Daris.

Tucks, emawrs, blacks, whites, males, females (and even Mexicans), lend your ear:

It would be a colossal mistake to dismiss out of hand the dream of the lazy river that we have all worked so hard to achieve. Supposedly MHK is due to receive federal megafunds to be used at our discretion. Previously, my understanding was that those funds were to be used for transporting seniors to their jobs at Wal Mart and stuff. I am here to say that a solution* may exist which would satisfy everybody's needs and desires. But we have to work together and think rationally. Let's focus on our shared goal to float down lazy rivers whenever we please and work on our other wants later.

HEAR THIS PLEA: Do not abandon the Lazy River.

















*not involving a monorail



Ooh, nice outfit. What is that, Dacron?

West Virginia has an on-campus monorail. I feel like this has been really undersold.
