Hollis-Amtrak to Emeryville, approx. 10:28am - Is This Really Jazz?

Is this really jazz?: A very vanilla, chemically-castrated version of "Get Down on It" by Kool & the Gang on KKSF, the "smooth jazz" station. Just because a piece of musical gruel features a sax and has no vocals, it's jazz?

Wheelchair!: The driver secures a wheelchaired passenger at MacArthur BART. The Powell bus pulls up next to the Hollis-Amtrak, and the Powell driver says something to the Hollis driver. The Hollis driver replies, "Wheelchair!" The woman on the wheelchair, who was slumped over lifeless, springs up and says "WHAT?!" No one answers.
