OMG – Someone please control Christine O’donnell

Compared to Asia and Europe our public transport is very third world.

I doubt that Americans are ready to take public transport. We have already grown too fat and lazy to walk. We need the SUVs to carry around all the household items including the humongous baby strollers.

Trains have a chance to work in the North-Eastern Coast.

But So Cal to Last Vegas? I don’t think so. As it is now, there’s not even a direct bus line to the strip. You would think that there’d be a direct bus line to carry all the tourists to the strip.

Urban planning needs to be rethought if we are to have good public transport in So Cal. That will take at least another 5 decades.

I don’t have much hope. And that’s coming from someone who takes the Amtrak to OC and LA regularly.

I too was raise Catholic. I believe, generally speaking, Catholics, of all Christians, are more reasonable.

I agree with you assessment of the voucher system.

It will give the us the diploma mills just like we have in higher education.

Certainly they’ve always been known for being reasonable.

haha… Good point, Concho.
I mean since the 1950s.

Also, more reasonable, doesn’t necessarily mean reasonable 😉
