    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    Yeah, I meant making suggestions during the trip is a bad idea. Before the trip, you can influence it, much like with any hallucinogen. For example, if you're scared of doing it and think it'll be a bad trip, guess what? It'll be a bad trip. If you tell yourself "I am going to see (insert thing...

    Markham Bypass to end at Steeles Ave....

    Just get the damned Midtown Corridor in service, then run build a GO station there instead. Hell, you could even send the train to Peterborough from there. Building an LRT line would be pointless due to miniscule ridership and a long trip time.

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    On the actual thread topic: I'm not sure how to feel about this. On one hand, face scanning technology would be a huge extra expense and possibly result in false-positives. On the other hand, at least the TTC is trying to keep human rights intact. I really don't think there will be any panacea...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    That's called quidding, and yes, it's less effective than smoking it because you do it with just the leaves, rather than the extract. It also tastes like concentrated ass, apparently. Agreed. Salvia is one of those things you do in a closed, controlled environment with other trustworthy people...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    For your own sake, I'd suggest you do some more research on it before smoking salvia. A lot of people think "Sweet, legal psychoactive!" and then end up regretting it. Salvia is not like weed. Salvia makes you forget that you exist because there is no concept of you, no concept of concept...

    Watch this. http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=2VPmGhNJi1A Note that he takes a single hit, tops it off, then starts tripping almost instantly. I've heard a salvia trip being described as "someone chaining you to the back of a pickup truck and dragging you through your mind at a few hundred...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    This, right here, is what it comes down to. Operating heavy vehicles and machinery while under the influence of anything is not only stupid, but absolutely retarded. There is no reason why you can't just wait until after work to get stoned. Taking a bus onto the road while under the influence of...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    If you stop using any substance after doing so frequently for a long time, you'll feel different. The irritability you speak of is, in fact, a psychological thing. Also, nobody I know, including myself "does it to be rebellious". It's fun and safer than getting drunk, and besides that, there...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    Exactly. Marijuana isn't physically addictive, but it is psychologically addictive if you let it be. Psychological addictions are usually less dangerous than physical addictions (as the withdrawl is only in your head, not actually effecting your body as with heroin or cocaine), but no less...

    Time for a little fun: alternate history transit!

    No news article to go with this one, as it's based on someone else's work. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the Transit Toronto article "What if the Queen Subway was built instead of the Bloor-Danforth?" written by James Bow, located here: http://transit.toronto.on.ca/streetcar/4016.shtml...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    My bad, I missed the bit about him doing drugs at work. Sorry about that. Yeah, if he's doing it at work, that's probably indicative of either a problem or exceedingly poor judgement.

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    My mom works for DARTS, in Hamilton. One of her co-workers stole a bus and drove out to Grimsby to buy weed. She was caught. She still has her job because the union raised hell. Another guy (a dispatcher) was caught smoking crack in their parking lot. Once again, he got his job back at the...

    Officially Unofficial Metrolinx Regional Transportation Plan Thread

    There's a problem with this too, however. If, say, Caledon has a tiny tax on parking, do you really think the local businesses will support improved transit later on if it means higher parking taxes?

    Time for a little fun: alternate history transit!

    Now entering alternate universe... Click here for map Alright fellows, hold on, switching to another universe... Click here for map ***** So what exactly is this? This is just something I started working on when I was bored the other day, and it evolved into a thread idea. As I'm sure you...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    I'm not saying they shouldn't be drug tested at all. I'm saying they should use the far less intrusive mouth swab method of doing it, rather than the very intrusive and very common urine test. If you swab their mouth and get a positive, that means they've done it in the past day or so and they...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    You guys are forgetting something. Marijuana can be detected in urine for up to four weeks. Now if they do mouth swab tests, I will have no problem with this. Mouth swabs are accurate to about 24 hours, so if they fail one of those, there's a good chance that they're a danger. However, the more...

    TTC to Proceed with Drug Testing

    Oh yeah, I know I'm going to feel safer if my driver is fired for smoking a joint on a day he wasn't working two weeks previously. Let's be more like the United States, am I right? :rolleyes:

    University of Guelph builds GO hub

    I have held a grudge against Laidlaw for many years... When I was nought but a wee lad in grade two (1999), me and my class got to go see Peter Pan down at Sir John A. Macdonald High School (Hamilton). We were all "kick ass!" because seriously, Peter Pan was the shit! Anyway, we went down and...

    Transit Fares

    It's funny, actually. The other day I was looking at my HSR tickets and thinking "Wow, you could do a double-sided colour copy of these and have fares for life." Hopefully this aids in the deployment of Presto on the TTC, as carrying around a bunch of tokens is far more annoying than carrying...

    TTC's subway NOT very impressive

    Gentlemen, we have a winner! For god's sake, if you're going to be retarded, at least learn to speak English.
