No Airport security BS, on a totally comfortable train.

I agree. MagLev in fact. If I were O, I'd have been pushing for this kind of thing big time, instead of this stupid green energy crap and bank bailouts. Though I have to say I'd also have been looking to upgrade older infrastructure like the interstates.
