Apparently I've been on twitter since 2008. I'm moderately surprised that it's been that long.

Kiel (population 250,000) decides to build a four-line light rail/tram network. cost:benefit ratio of 1.47. can raise local funding and also gets € from state and federal governments. nothing unusual about this, except in the UK railjournal.com/passenger/li…
Music for the local fireworks opened with Rule Brittania then seamlessly moved on to the Crazy Frog version of Axel F.
