Well, the fact also remains that if you don't build what is needed, no one will ever use it. We don;t need a street level people mover/parking shuttle. we need coherent mass transit. We need to get people from where they are to where they want to go. Is Light rail from new center to hart plaza or new center to the airport going to stop the gridlock on double booked game days or fireworks nights?

What you seem to be advocating is akin to waiting to see how many people show up at a field intending to catch a flight before you decide to build an airport.
But what you're advocating [[well, maybe not you per se..but the various and numerous threads on light/heavy/elevated/maglev trains) is building McNamara Terminal to service a handful of flights a year, when what we really need is to fix up city airport.
