As such, the rail car died. Do you have public transport? How much have you used? When traveling, do you take the Greyhound or do you drive your own car? What about in town? Do you take the bus or do you drive?

To answer your questions, go to the bathroom and look in the mirror. You didn't want them enough so they died out. It is not the car companies, oil companies or govt. It is all you, the consumer. You wanted it, you got it. Nobody led you anywheres. You didn't want to go out in the elements at the prescribed time. You wanted your privacy. You wanted your comfort. You got it all. Now you ***** and moan about something you haven't shown interest in for years. You sound just like a kid that complains because Mom threw away some of your old toys you haven't played with for years.
