  1. 1. The Chinese still know how to dream big dreams. Why has America forgotten?

    • Because we're busy collecting followers on Twitter. Priorities, man!
    • Because the fiscal conservative naysayers have killed the can-do spirit in America.
      0
    • Because liberals who love to spend have hollowed America out from the inside.

    • We still dream big. The premise of the question is false!
  2. 2. Do you like the idea of a train from mainland China to America's Pacific coast?

    • Yes, but only if it carries commercial goods only. No people.
    • Yes, but only if it carries people! People to people contact is the best bulwark against conflict.

    • No. The last thing this country needs is another way for the Chinese to send their manufactured goods and people here.

When I mentioned the Japanese I was talking about under- water tunnelling. Plus Japanese trains are the best. You seem very anti-Japanese . Get over it.

Saying that The Japanese trains are the best is putting other train makers in a negative light. Therefore it is a stereotyping statement. Both ways. It also implies that the Japanese are only good at making trains.

or saying they are good tunnel diggers is a horrible stereotype

Pretty much that when she posted this clarification you right after it quoted it and acknowledged it. Just take it that the memory is not what it once was.

My opinion? The Japanese train system is very easy and reliable. I remember catching the train around in New York and it was very confusing for me. All I could think about was, Japan was easy in comparison to this one. That's just my take on it. They make riding the train as pleasant as they possibly can. The only downside is when they crowd 200 people into a space that's only for about 50 passengers.

I understand that. I thought I was trying to help him because I didn't want him to get a 'time out'. We had taken that 'fun time' to as far as we could and I knew it was over. I probably should have sent him a PM instead. I reread my posting and saw that it seemed I was jumping on him when I wasn't trying to do so. I was frustrated about some work I was doing and had lost. I apologized to him and he seemed to accept it. I maybe should have done some LOL or some such. I will just in the future let people learn as I have had to do over the years.

Actually MARTA in Atl is fairly easy to use also, I just wish we had a high speed between Sav-Mac-Atl

When they built the Metro here in STL, I had joined the military and never got a chance to try it. But it's not like a traditional rail system. So, to be fair, I've only caught trains in Germany and Japan. That's the limit of my expertise.

Lucky I f I can be serious for a second

I never take any of this serious or personal. It's a make believe world populated by a bunch of self infatuated blow hards, who turn to this because, everyone in the real world is tired of their opinions and don't care. No one here cares either, but we at least get to type out our opinions, however badly.

Not a regular here I don't like, who I could not have a beer with in real life. I never take any of the jabs personal and find many of them quite funny. When Valrie told me the other day that I had either given a oral to a President or been a president, I chuckled all day.People pay for that kind of brilliant humor.So in short don't ever feel I take anything the wrong way. Throwing a jab or two in fun is all part of it.

As for the Mods.I am the Nature B from Middle G,.Women love me cause I take my time, Mods fear me cause I speak my mind.

The Mods told me that because of a case or two of proven Mod brutality I could act the fool without repercussion for 2 months long as I did not use a racial epithet , abbreviation. or Bicker with MBD.

Seriously I know what they do is not easy sometime, and most try. If I got a life ban tomorrow, it would not affect my world for one second,

This my one somewhat seriosu post of the quarter. Some parts of this were humor...

You and I are good. I was just explaining to GnD why I wasn't being an Ahole as I like the kid. Also it wasn't just you I was trying to help. I was sure someone else would come in and start having a short lived 'fun time' and I knew a particular mod was lurking hence the youtube. He seems to like stupid rabbit pics so I was preempting that smh moment.
