Why would I care? Just because this fictitious boondoggle would stop in a city I live near? Why would that make me want to pay for someone else to ride?
America must eventually construct this High speed subteranean network,let us start now, why are the Europeans always ahead of us on these advanced,
environmentally freindly projects?!?,how many times have any of you people gone to the Airport during a winter month, and learned that your flight was cancelled due to snow or icy conditions?.This Subteranean network will be weather proof.Year round travel,no more cancellations due to bad weather!!.

Do you have any clue as to how many seismic events occur in this country? Bad weather may delay a few flights, but a good earthquake would collapse that little tunnel. What happens in case of a power outage while the train is going between Phoenix and Houston? A crash or derailment? Subterranean causes far more problems than you seem to realize.
