To prevent a deluge of calls, I won't type the AC Transit employee's name, but I finally got through to someone (D.D.) who actually called me back and, after 2.5 year of struggle with AC Transit on this matter, took care of it in 4 hours. I am still amazed. Thank you, D. D.

Thanks for staying on top of this problem.

Bench removed, problem eliminated. Closing this, thank you.
