“My high-speed rail proposal will lead to innovations that change the way we travel in America. We must start developing clean, energy-efficient transportation that will define our regions for centuries to come

You're a hero to me, did you know?

It's exactly as I think things should work, that one loves something, and learns about it, and keeps doing that for a long while, and then gets to be involved in it in some building-for-the-future way. Rock on, you!

I hope I can live up to that praise. And, yes- from my perspective, it's also gratifying (and extremely stunning) to watch things take shape (or, even just align themselves, if ever so briefly) in ways that are actually representative of my ideals.

Actually, I'm not sure if I even believe it when it happens. I'll chalk that up to healthy skepticism, if that's ok with everyone...

My b/f Andy told me about this last night, and said Obama had said he had "the world's biggest train fan" with him... and I said "how did he find rY.???"

You come before Joe Biden as far as fans of trains are concerned, in my world. This is a great day for all of us. YAY!!!

EDIT: I went with this icon to mix it up a bit... yikes is it out of date, me-wise!

Yesterday was a great new beginning, but the hard work has only just begun. Enjoy your PV ride, and I'll see you across the Potomac! Time to roll up our sleeves...

That's super cool, I'm very curious whatever happened to the Pennsylvanian private car from "Coast to Coast."
