Taking the Supertrain

Well, not really, because I live in a country where we can't have nice things like Supertrains or National Healthcare due to the need for tax cuts for people like Mitt Romney. However, I am currently on an Amtrak train going to Chicago. Aside from relieving me of the hassle and expenses of driving, I'm impressed by the comfort and the courtesy and professionalism of the crew. It really is a great way to travel and it's a shame we can't find away to invest in more and better ways to do it, and get more people on board, so to speak. Too bad those Europeans are such dirty commie hippies, or we might learn something from them.
