California bullet train...one of the most stupid ideas in California
in an era of stiff competition for stupidity.

- why spend tens of billions of dollars on a train for a supposed
transportation need that could be solved with a few more airliners?
- why not start with a train line that has a demonstrated demand: the
Capital Corridor, instead of lines with no demonstrated demand.
