    No not really. Mostly I'm horrified at the 40+ years of marginal investments in infrastructure that make rail and road travel unecessarily dangerous.

    Yeah, you're probably right, and the Las Vegas shooter was just some guy with a tummy ache.

    The Las Vegas shooter was some schmuck who had a bad notion and because he was rich had the means to carry it out. Conspiracy theories don't help anyone

    Two Blondes
    Two blondes were walking through the woods and they came to some tracks.

    The first blonde said: "These look like deer tracks."

    And the other one said: "No they look like moose tracks."

    They argued and argued for a while and they were still arguing when the train hit them.
    Better than the dump!
