Sharon Brown Jeter
3:15:04
Thank you.
3:15:05
I got that point across.
3:15:07
Now the subway surfing is very easy.
3:15:10
Let the children who are interested in trains come to the MTA and be trained how to use the trains, how to run them, just in case they're interested in working, in the MTA in the future.
Matthew Paolucci
3:15:26
Yes.
3:15:26
I hope.
Sharon Brown Jeter
3:15:27
If they're interested in doing stunts, let them have someone from the movies come and show them how to do stunts on a train.
3:15:35
Very easy things.
3:15:37
These are not things to medicate.
3:15:39
These are not things to have therapy.
3:15:41
If someone is interested in climbing on a train, do not tell the children, you have never seen that before.
3:15:48
I've seen it done many times in a movie.
3:15:51
So you can say, we do see things like this.
3:15:54
This is normal in the proper setting, not in a doctor's office.
3:16:00
We can go into, a movie training, we can deal with the mayor's office, they deal with the movies, with the television.
3:16:11
They'll they deal with all of that.
3:16:13
We can have someone coordinate from the mayor's office to the MTA.
3:16:18
They both work in the government.
3:16:20
They can say, let's get the kids some training.
3:16:23
Let's not tell the kids, you have this idea.
3:16:26
This is wild.
3:16:26
We've never seen it on the planet.
3:16:29
We watch movies.
3:16:31
We've seen people do things like that on trains.
3:16:34
You can also do something like that, not in that setting.
3:16:37
We have a proper setting for you.
