ok, it's vent time...

The next time anyone suggests holding a major event in the Fleet Center, they need to be muzzled, shot, whatever phrase you wish!

Granted, the Fleet is like 100 yards from I93, but there's a perfectly good convention center in South Boston, all new, shiney etc.

But it's too late now, the DNC mess is here :(

We now have one heck of a traffic mess with I93 being closed during the evening...

State troopers, dressed in black, stopping every moving truck and van that they think is a "risk" going in and out of Boston - thus slowing traffic down as we all gawk at the mess!

I for one will be glad when the democrats leave Boston on Thursday night, good riddins and thanks a bunch for screwing up lots of people's lives...

I agree.

The shutdown of 93 is a major headache. I am avoiding Boston at all costs.

I had a doctor's appointment there, for some experimental treatment on my cancer, and I had to cancel, thanks to the DNC. Traffic is a nightmare.

However, it's gotta be held somewhere. However, the FleetCenter is smack in the middle of everything!

Yeah, chill out, it's only a few days. I live in Seattle, WA. We have to deal with MAJOR traffic problems everyday, because of sports games in our new stadiums that are right next to the main non-freeway arterial into downtown Seattle. Freeways are ALWAYS jammed during the week. So if us people in Seattle need to live with this everday, you can live with traffic hell for a few days.

Sorry to be a stickler, but Boo-fuking-hoo!

Try living on Oahu in Hawaii, where there is 3 freeways that merge into one to get into downtown Honolulu. Or, how about Los Angeles, where there is traffic for no damn reason at no particular time?

Maybe you Bostonians should learn the meaning of ALTERNATE travel. The Bay Area can have some pretty sick traffic at times, but if you're smart and plan ahead, you can avoid a good part of it.

On a side note to the DNC, I find it hilarious and really sad that they are fortifying Boston like a damn military base for these sorry ******s, yet they can't find a way to protect everyday citizens. Everytime I see this thing on the news it makes me sick.

grow up...it's only a few days
You grow up. Many business's are closing for the time because the city is virtually shut down. If you die the hearses can't take you away for security reasons.

Who are the idiots that okayed that planning?

So if us people in Seattle need to live with this everday

If its an all time event then it should have been planned for. The DNC is a one time event which

wouldn't have been so bad if it weren't for security concerns. There is a big difference between "heavy" traffic and no traffic.

jaccod

ALTERNATE travel

If you want to get into Boston you can't, it is closed. Not heavey traffic...no traffic. There are no alternate routes. Believe we know about heavey traffic. The "Big Dig" didn't help to alleviate it.

The original idea still stands. Chill out, you'll get over it. There isn't any reason to bring it up on this forum. Everyone has to deal with some crap they can't stand. Yet do you see everyone bringing there issues up on this forum and that is because we have better things to do and we all know we'll get past it. Like I said there isn't any reason for you to bring it up on this forum. Get over it.

Seattle traffic is nasty, but we live with it. We have a good bus system and simple commuter rail, but the liberals here are killing any effort for true mass transit.

I noticed that the post was made by a different person then the person who started this thread. However, what I said still stands because if you identify with that person who started this thread they what I said applies to you too.

The conventionis part of our process. The extra guards are necessary to assist in the prevention of any violence. Live with it - its only 1 week.

Okay I must retract my prior post. I forgot construction on the main artery was incomplete.

Idiots for planning that. It must have been demanded by Kerry

No, but thanks for trying. It was demanded by Menino. He consistently stated Boston could handle the influx of people, and wanted to make Boston look like a viable large city for future events.

Or maybe it wasn't Menino, maybe it was everyone trying to take orders from Mayor Mumbles who got it wrong. Either way, I wouldn't be in town this week if I could avoid it.

the convention didn't pop up over night - it's been planned for over a year. you COULD have planned to be out of town this week

leave your town, the democrats are coming to visit. i mean, come on, why are people's lives being inconvienced for a convention. The RNC isn't going to close many business unlike the DNC which closed almost all businesses around it. The RNC is going to help business, not hurt it, and trains wil still run (though more secure), but daily NY will continue. Unlike in boston.

Never been to Boston, have you? It's about 1/100 the size of New York. Plus, let's see how the RNC turns out, ok? My guess is they'll be just as many people complaining.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
