Came in here to post that. What a piece of shit that thing is. Even coma patients have more uptime than that it does.

They probably figured there would be no harm in using a word which for years and years has a meaning related to movement. Five years ago it had no negative connotation, and five years from now it won't once again. It's just the slang of the moment.

5 years ago SCAT was still a "nice" name for excrement. 10 years ago--yep, sure was! 2G1C did not invent the term...

SLO Transit. San Luis Obispo Transit. How about that?

Pretty sure there's a SCAT here, too. Space Coast Area Transit. I had the same reaction as you.
