I am rushed. I have to meet my coffee club in a few minutes in a longshoremen's neighborhood and don't want to get these longshoremen upset. I know what they can do when they get a bit upset.
Later I will flesh this story out.
Hunter S. Thompson wrote a great article on the state of passenger trains in 1965. That story was never published but was re-printed in its entirety in a collection of Hunter S. Thompson letters some time ago. Later I will provide more information regarding that letter.
It's too bad HST (Hunter, not Harry) is no longer with us. It would be interesting to hear his thoughts on California's train to nowhere. A reader just alerted me to the fact that California's debt / deficit problem appears to be resolved. They have the funding for the bullet train to nowhere.
No better news than to hear the deficit problem California had is resolved.
