Michael, > I dont know how you can justify this industry without either subsidies or amtrakking them. Let the big airlines split apart, go bankrupt (again), or die slow horrible deaths. How come Southwest is able to consistently turn a profit? minyanville.com How about JetBlue? Both of those airlines are a pleasure to fly. Not like United, American, and USAirways. Meanwhile, passenger rail is completely abysmal here in America. Why don't we try and privatize it? I'm not really up on the rail industry, but I do wonder why there isn't a "bullet train" between DC and NY or SF and LA. Tenchusatsu
