Rail is a good idea, but the real challenge is the "last mile" problem. How do you get the passengers of said train to their ultimate destinations, assuming they don't work/live in the station? Bus? At some point the travel will have to be individualized to accommodate for those who need to get somewhere from the station. Walking would be great, but what's more difficult: Finding a solution to this problem, or slimming down America?

Dead Goldfish Offered The Vote In Illinois 216

Election officials in northern Chicago want to know why voter registration material was sent to Princess, a dead goldfish. "I am just stunned at the level of people compromising the integrity of the voting process," said Lake County Clerk Willard Helander, a Republican, who said she has spotted problems with nearly 1,000 voter registrations this year. Beth Nudelman, who owned Princess, said the fish may have got on a mailing list because the family once filled in her name when they got a second phone line for a computer. When will we recognize a goldfish's right to vote?
