. >> mark gruber, -- >> thank you. mark gruber. united taxicab workers. we desperately need electronic taxicab access. it should be done in the form of a single app put out my contract through an rfp instead of having some multitude of apps fighting among each other. you might have gotten a glimmer from the taxi magic representative. this is something that needs to be done right. and the only way i can see doing it right is to have one single app that every person can access a san francisco taxi through. we need to be branded in a very clear and obvious way if we are going to meet the competition. i am also greatly concerned as director lee was expressing about the information that would be collected through this data collection system that doesn't seem to have much relevance at all to the function of putting a potential passenger in contact with the driver in their cab, done with any number of apps without all of this information being brought into one central place and the only thing i can see here is that it is being done for agency purposes and that i

at the time when the accident took place, i received a letter from one of the wives the co-pilot, gruber, and at the time of the accident, colonel john brau was flying the plane. the sad thing about it is why they had 19 marines on the back, the families do not know, quite frankly, the former commandant in the marine corps in the time of the accident, general jim jones, not a relation to me but i think the world of him, he said to me, i don't know why in the world they did not have sacks of weight in the back insed of 17 marines sitting back there. the problem is, the lawsuits are over, i've spoken to the lawyer in
