49. Don't assume what I am willing to try or not try. Actually I think it could be privatized, with
government or paragovernment oversight. Someone has to prevent cheating. Excuse me but "mass transit is fairy tale stuff"? Tell that to the millions of commuters in cities, suburban and yes rural areas that use it every day all over the world, including the U.S. The fact that we haven't figured out how to make it work in the U.S. very well is not because it is a fairy tale, it is because of a lack of political will and imagination.

The use of carbon combustion technology will be reduced one way or another. It is only a question of whether we will control its reduction or we will allow events to control its reduction. I prefer the former.
