[quote user="schlimm"] There was no personal attack intended.  just pointing out what was said.    As to your experiences, you have recited them over and over on threads on this forum.  Since you say you are retired, you were in the utility industry with a Fortune 500 company for many (30? 40?) years, when you say you left professional flying for business, it would seem reasonable to conclude that you've been out of whatever professional flying you were doing for 35-45 years.  I don't know what you were flying, as you don't tell us that in the same way as Bluestreak reveals his with clarity.  The reason I even mentioned your background was clearly stated in my post.  You are the one who mentioned your flight experience as a way of challenging his credentials inquisitorily:  "How many hours as a pilot in command have you logged?  And on what type of aircraft under what conditions?"  And then when called on it, you play your victim card. [/quote] My reference to my aviation experience and licenses was posted, I believe, before Bluestreak listed his experience as a commercial airline pilot.  It was shown only to establish the fact that I know a little bit about aviation, including the potential to expand airports and the air traffic control system.  This was in response to the assertion that one of the justifications for Amtrak or intercity passenger rail is that the highways and airways in select areas of the country, i.e. NEC, etc., could not be expanded, or it would be costly to do so. Every assumption that you have made about me has been essentially incorrect.  I suggest that you stick to what I say about Trains and competing modes of transport and leave the personal stuff alone.
