GravatarTrain is much better between DC to Philly than plane.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080...s/ atlanta_storm

ATLANTA - A severe storm ripped through downtown Atlanta on Friday night, damaging skyscrapers, hotels and two major sports arenas filled with thousands of pro and college basketball fans.

National Weather Service officials were unsure if a tornado had touched down, but wind was clocked at up to 60 mph as the storm moved through the city.

Numerous windows were broken at CNN Center.

At the Georgia Dome, where Mississippi State was playing the University of Alabama in a Southeastern Tournament basketball game, catwalks swayed and insulation fell from the roof, sending fans fleeing toward the exits and the teams to their locker rooms.

The game resumed after a delay of about an hour.

It wasn't immediately known if a tornado struck the 16-year-old building, though a roaring noise was heard inside as the storm moved through downtown Atlanta.

"I thought it was a tornado or a terrorist attack," said Mississippi State guard Ben Hansbrough, who was guarding Alabama's Mykal Riley when a rumbling noise was heard from above.


Gravatarer acela is not the only option


GravatarHEY DAMMIT!!! He left himself open to breathing the VERY AIR of the peasants.....
so

Rubs elbows with the great unwashed..


GravatarI used to ride the Acela all the time. The First Class section (which I always loved to ride) was usually close to double the price.

They serve all the free booze you can drink, maybe that was why McCain was on. The food also is actually not bad as well.

Also, it would be insane time wise to fly from DC to Philadelphia at Atrios notes. The Acela is the only way to go for that distance. DC to NY is a toss up in my opinion, and many swear by the plane.


Gravatar/too sad

GravatarJohn McCain traveled like a man of the people Friday morning, walking to his luxury bus rather being carried by sedan chair.

“Nice to see you, nice to see you,” McCain said to regular people he met on the street.

we did bomb Cambodia, didn't we?

and we did refuse to condemn apartheid for decades, right?

Not only bombed them had troops invade Cambodia (I remember the night and Richard Nixon and his "Fishhook Expedition."

Yes, we did not want to offend our allies the South Africans. And if we condemned Apartheid, we would have been shut out of their economy and then how could we work to affect change? (This is EXACTLY the same bullshit argument they use when they talk of China.)

Gravataramtrak ain't cheap, and if you're traveling in a group over that distance a car makes sense, but air travel between philly and DC is idiotic.


GravatarWhat do you think this country is, anyway? Those are reserved for civilized, non - fascist countries, not our capitalist paradise, dominated as it is by the oil and automobile industries..

Oh.

my mistake


GravatarAcela isn't that bad when you figure in cabs to Dulles/from LGA. Metroliners are cheaper, but I've never had to go to NYC that I couldn't find some reason to bill it all to a client anyway.


GravatarMissouri used to subsidize amtrack, could travel from K.C. to St. Louis for $35.00.


Gravatarand the tolls!! gas plus tolls would be 80 at least round trip.


GravatarActually, it looks like one way business class Acela ticket maxes out on weekdays at 137.00 between DC and Philly.

GravatarAcela Express trains are the only true high-speed trainsets
in the United States. This has made the trains very popular, and by
some reckoning, Amtrak has captured over half of the market share of
travelers between Washington and New York.
Outside of stations, Acela runs at speeds between 75 mph (120 km/h) and
150 mph (241 km/h), depending on track conditions. On the average, it
is significantly slower than most other high-speed trains elsewhere in
the world (THE MOTHERFRACKING INDUSTRIALIZED WORLD).

i think due to the local stops it amkes and to the fact that the track crves more than a track designed from the beginning to be high speed would curve.


GravatarThe Milwaukee Road had a branch line that ran across our farm... and up to the 1950s you could stand along the right-of-way and flag the train down for a ride... either to town, which is about five miles away, or to the mainline, which connected eventually to the whole rest of the world... I get a kick out of reading the timetables and imagining the journeys one could have made, starting out in the middle of a cornfield.

GravatarNight, all.

Been a fairly interesting day. I have been called a sexist again (without proof or reason, but that is par for the course) I have asked questions and posited solutions that have remained unanswered and unchallenged. I suppose that is to be expected. Some questions have no answers and some solutions are simply impossible without a will to complete and the truth is, in my heart I do not believe that the leadership of this country is capable of asking people to sacrifice to solve a problem and that is sad. I believe that people WILL sacrifice and will solve the problems if they are asked: but the timidity of our leaders and the nefarious bastard qualities of our media condemn us I am afraid.

Peace.

It's not the inability of political leaders to ask the average American to sacrifice that I'm worried about. It's the fact that they consistently fail to lead those of us who elect them, and they refuse to demand of the corporate entities which have brought us to the precipice, any responsibility or sacrifice for the greater good.

Gravatarif we could get some new right of ways and blow up some suburbs we could get a relatively striaght shot from NYC to DC/ then the train would go a lot faster.

This is why I think a maglev line from DC to Boston could work. It would need new right of ways, seperate from the current rail corridor (or possibly built atop it) and would provide very high speed (300+ MPH) transit.

The catch of course is building the maglev track to run the thing on, which is why I think it might be smarter to build dedicated maglev rather than share tuned tracks for high speed rail with local passenger and freight service on the existing rail corridor.

GravatarThe only ammunition I needed was to actually hear clips of Preacher Wright spewing and hollering his virulent, palpable, fetid HATRED OF WHITEY to decide that if Obama had actually spent 20 yrs. sitting under the sermons of this racist hate monger - Obama is not capable of being the President of the white man - black only need apply as his constituency. Scary Farakhan type beliefs.

TCB, he doesn't hate "whitey". Well, unless one defines "whitey" as pathetic little shitstains like you.


Gravatar[your candidate's name here] is the worst thing ever to happen to the
Democratic Party. If he/she wins the nomination, I will not only not
vote for him/her, but I will stop bathing and paying taxes in protest.


I hope I have, by luck more likely than skill, managed to at least vaguely indicate how truly, desperately, wildly I love you.


GravatarObama is not capable of being the President of the white man

It's just come to me...we need two presidents. Separate but equal!





Well, he is lucky and all, but he's only capable of being 3/5's of a president.


GravatarObama is not capable of being the President of the white man

Good thing the white man is only what - 25% of the population? 20%?

He doesn't need em.

Oh shit, I should've just said your candidate sucks and STFU.

Obama's going to proclaim himself Duke of Earl, just like in R. Crumb's "When the Niggers Take Over America."

TCB will be forced to pick cotton while singing traditional white laments like Spandau Ballet's "True."

I just hope I live to see it.

And pointed out as a perfect example of why "his people" are simply not capable of better things like self-government, and that it is an act of Christian charity to keep them in a state of dependency as they are clearly not able to fend for themselves if they were set free like those irresponsible liberals keep advocating.


GravatarYou guys want to hear something really fucking SHOCKING????

GravatarAmong other causes of the current credit crisis, Bernanke said, "much of the weakening in underwriting standards appears to have happened outside of institutions regulated by the federal banking agencies.''

He said "strong, uniform oversight of different types of mortgage lenders is critical to avoiding future problems. Regulatory oversight of mortgage lending has become more challenging as the breadth and depth of this market has grown over the past decade.'' He added the Fed is working with other state and federal agencies "to achieve more uniformly effective supervision.''

Gosh, I can still just make out the tails on the horses.

Let's see some regulation, FedMan.

Thanks for proving my point- Jerimiah Wright's rancid, divisive racism. I bet you've never felt patriotic until Obama, either, have you?

GravatarThe Soup rocks this week.


GravatarThe Air Force's latest new slogan (they change slogans as often as they wet their pants) is Above All, which appearently came from a currently popular Christian Rock song. The last one was "Airpower!" which is at least an acceptable military term relevant to the Air Force.  Somewhere earlier was
"Aim High" (which is just incorrect -- "aiming high" is an error like failing to correct your dope for wind).

GravatarAtrios, you must be really desperate to be posting petty bullshit like this. You're a pissypants wanker, d00d.


GravatarUmmm.... McCain has been trying to kill Amtrak for years. Yet another bout of hypocrasy from the "straight talker".
Voted NO in 2007 to restore Amtrak funding to previous levels. Way back in 1997 he called Amtrak funding "The great train robbery". So the man is once again showing how full of s*** he truly is.

Go buy some teeth, you inbred hick.


GravatarGiven that the flight time from DC to Boston is so short that the planes start descending almost as soon as they're up, I don't WANT to take a flight from DC to Philadelphia, ever. I would be expecting the plane to barely clear the treetops.

I have always taken a train / Greyhound from DC to Philadelphia or New York (where I attended schools). The bus can be actually more comfortable, because the non-Acela Amtrak train cars are getting run-down.

However, I prefer all this to the fascist security shopping-mall land of U.S. major airports. I resent having to suffer the paranoid TSA and overpriced sandwiches just to face my fear of flying. I've read about the physics of flight, but my gut does not believe that 100,000 to 750,000 pounds of metal can become airborne without crashing.
