    The strange part is that after 7/7, a group claimed responsibility, but after 7/11 (oh God, someone is going to make a tasteless joke about that...), no one has said a peep. It looks like Al Queda's work in that it is very coordinated, but I wonder why they aren't saying anything.

      No, the riding is the norm. That was the point being made in the video I watched. Train wrecks are, well, a real train wreck.

          Dallas has a good train system. The only time it looked like that was when the Mexicans were going downtown to protest.

              Yeah, I take it back: the DC metro works fine too. I was more thinking of Amtrack.

                Condolences to he vicims in Mumbai. The government of Pakistan appears to be saying the right things, and I have a sense they are sincere. I hope the people of Gandhi's country can find a constructive, non-violent way to react.

                TRUE STORY:
                Reported passenger casualties are much lower than you would think. A few years ago I was at an international railroad safety conference with a speaker from the Indian Railways. Someone from the audience asked how there were so few passenger injuries and fatalities with the Indian trains being so packed. He said:
                If we sell someone a ticket, then they are considered a passenger. But if they fall off the train, by the time they hit the ground ..... they're a trespasser.

                Moral of the story: Know what your data mean.
                Old posters never die.

                    Lashkar e toiba is probably to blame.

                      I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                        We all know that the CIA orchestrated these bombings so that the largest Democracy on earth would start takin a tougher stance on terrorism, right?

                            The Jews don't need alternate airspace to bomb North Pakistan in 2035. The US-KKK-A does!
