Ted, > You clearly have not ridden in one of the trains..light or heavy. They are not "sardine cans" as you put it. In fact, I wish planes were half as roomy.

My "sardine can" comment was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. You've never been in a Tokyo subway ...

> As for NY and LA......how do you think they got so dense [actually LA's density is fairly recent.......in the last 15 years]? In fact, its mass transit that encourages urban density.....not freeways.

It kind of goes hand-in-hand, but you can't just build mass transit and hope that alone will spur urban development.

Either that, or you should build an extensive light rail network in Detroit and Cleveland.
