I am not anonymous and have never hidden my real life identity. If I had done so then you and everyone else wouldn't know my name would you?

Well that's you isn't it? Are you saying that people who post stuff on the internet anonymously are all writing codswallop?

You should change your username to your actual name, or people might think that you are a hypocrite.

I await your updated profile.

I'm saying nothing of the sort. What I am saying is that if you're going to write a journalist piece on something like the Daily Wales then at least have the courtesy to put your name to it.

anyway, we digress, back to Central Square...

Thanks for the compliment. "Journalist piece". Cheers.

Throughout history there have been anti-establishment writers who wished to hide their identities.

Ganesh Shankar in India helped bring about the liberation from the Raj.

In the American revolution, most pamphlets were published under pseudonyms such as Cato and Aristeides.

In Total Recall, the guy leading the revolution hid his identity.

You get the picture, I hope.

Carwyn Jones and Eluned Parrott seem to share some concerns about the demolition of the bus station:

Once again they are acting as though the closure of the bus station will affect all bus users, it will not! When over the last few years have they complained about my 57 & 58 route not starting and finishing at the bus station? Never! Why are the routes that are currently at the bus station so special compared to mine? If it stays open or closes it will make no difference to many bus users, and i am sure the ones who currently use the bus station will manage just like everyone else who currently don't have that option.

Since the bus station was downgraded a few years back, it has become more of an irrelevance to many users. But for people who do need to transfer to another bus, or a coach, or a train, the bus station is still very important.

Likewise, for visitors to south Wales who arrive by train and need an onward connection, having a fully-functioning bus station is very important.

For all the posters who are saying that the closure of the bus station won't affect them much - I agree with you! It won't affect my travel on public transport at all, because I never use it.

But it will affect other people, who aren't YOU.
