Mass transit will never work well in this country, we will never be Europe, and that is a good thing in my mind. We have way too much ground to cover here. The large metropolitan areas should and do have mass transit, and a lot of people use it, but you are not going to see a lot of it in Montana. Mass transit works in Europe because the area is much more compressed, they just don't have the real estate between point A and point B.

And surging prices are likely to accelerate the destruction.<br /> entire article <br /> http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=mg18825265.400&feedId=online-news_rss20
