Once again I question ????, why is it always the people that do not even park or slug from PM that voice their differences or opinion. Park or slug from PM then post a reply. We have yet to hear from one person that had a different point of view that actually parked, pickup, or slug from PM

Let me take that back. To those that offered alternative solutions. My apologies.

i can only give you my reason, 757slugger. it's true that i don't drop off at PM, and it's perfectly natural that those who use the PM slug line have only the point of view as to what affects them day to day. i am looking at the entire slug system. this website isn't PMslug-lines.com, it covers all slug lots and lines. those of us who initially asked for a cooling off period and to explore other options before jumping right into a boycott were thinking of a bigger scope than one lot.

my fear has always been that PM would cut the available commuter parking to the originally contracted 250 slots. where are the other 700 cars that they have accomodated on a daily basis for years to go? to the lots the rest of us use. now do you think i'm entitled to express an opinion? or would you just like me to shut up until that happens? or will i even be allowed comment then? ain't free speech a wonderful thing, until you don't like the views being stated?

I don't know which one he/she was referring to that ticked him/her off (was it the single mother that was annoying??), but I found this:

Ceejay,

It will take more then someone questioning me on why I am posting to leave a forum.

I also believe that just because I do not slug, that I do not know what I am talking about. I drive passed PM all the time where I work has a location in Dale City and gasp the exit I take is the same one for PM. I also go down Minnieville Rd often, sometimes its quicker to get back to 95 that way then down Dale Blvd.

So I haven't posted on here in ages and when I do it is usually in regards to the 234 lot which still hasn't been expanded but that's another story. I had to finally respond to this one because the first 8 pages were amusing but now its just silly. PM only has to give 275 spots but out of the concern for the community they triple it. Now because people are abusing the priviledge they have to enforce the rules because they are legally required to and you all are complaining...that's funny. It reminds me of the kid from Willy Wonka who wants it all-all the time. Spoiled to the max.
See the link below on how others are viewing slugs.

I posted that rant, and I also showed everyone how to get there. Since I am a member I generally as a rule don't post to other forums. I can tell you how to get there. I did however post a link to the main slug site, just not to the forums on here.

Wayne,

That is what I thought, I know that in GA a lot of strip mall contracts are like that, some even have posted signs about which spaces belong to which stores. I see it up here as well.

typical Late Rider response. don't agree with Late Rider's point of view on PM, then just stop posting here. do be careful, one would think that Late Rider's warning would only mean the PM boycott threads. actually, he will start tracking you through this whole board. apparently, if you don't agree with every poster here on the board, you are a disloyal slug and shouldn't be here at all.
