Not really. It's all about *connections*, not people wanting the train 
to stop at every podunk town along the way. *One* stop at a major 
connection point isn't the same as, say, arguing over whether Caltrain 
should stop at Paul Ave., Atherton, Bay Meadows, etc., etc.

"Wikipedia ... it reminds me ... of dogs barking idiotically through
endless nights. It is so bad that a sort of grandeur creeps into it.
It drags itself out of the dark abyss of pish, and crawls insanely up
the topmost pinnacle of posh. It is rumble and bumble. It is flap and
doodle. It is balder and dash."
