    “You don’t understand, we’ll put it underground!” “Subway.” “We’ll…put it in the air!” “Monorail.” “…higher than that?” “Chairlift.”

      I wish I could walk, or cycle to work, but I’ve got an hour commute each way. And I live in a rural area, so public transport is non-existent, however I’d gladly go to a public transit hub if they existed here.

    Sometimes I think it’s weird that there is so much investment going into self-driving cars, when most trains still require a crew to operate, despite moving along a fixed track. Then again, when there are 400 people on it, it’s quite nice to have a small crew of people who’s job it is to take care of the vehicle and passengers.
