There's no other MBTA kickback scheme, or as far as I can tell another notable MBTA topic that this could be confused with.--Yaksar (let's chat) 03:56, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-10-14T03:56:00.000Z","author":"Yaksar","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Yaksar-2014-10-14T03:56:00.000Z-George_Ho-2014-10-14T02:32:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
Alternative use both, giving MBTA (Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority) kickback schemes. — Lentower (talk) 19:56, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-10-14T19:56:00.000Z","author":"Lentower","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Lentower-2014-10-14T19:56:00.000Z-George_Ho-2014-10-14T02:32:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
