I have read your "words" with great interest. You are new to us and we welcome you. AMTRACK is a political requirement for the assurance of re-election for many politicians weather they like riding the rails or not. As is mentioned by some of my collegues above, many of them railroaders, No one is owed a living and Democrats are not always AMTRACK's friend. The members of the U.S. Senate have by in large been tacit supporters of Amtrack or tolerate its existance. Election and re-election is some cases is hard enough without opening another can of worms that is best be left alone --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------As for the Junior Senator from New York, I am sure that she would do anything politically expediant to get another vote. On that point I think she was successful with getting your vote, that is if you live in New York, at ol Trent's expense I'm sure.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This brings me to one small matter, excitement is fine and often expressed in this forum, but if it is not to much trouble please try to use lower case it doesn't use as much room in the thread----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I do hope that you can find the good employment you seek, everybody deserves a shot at success.
