Wow. Everyone here sure is quick to raise the white flag of surrender. Read the newspaper article about what those backward, tobacco-chewing, country hicks in Michigan's Upper Peninsula are doing. They're actually converting a trail back into a railroad. Imagine that! Just as what the intent of the Rails-To Trails law specifies!

And there's even been some examples where a trail can be built right next to a railroad, with a fence separating the two.

Naaaaah! It so much easier to just drink the Kool Aid that the NIMBYs are serving up and assume that it can't be done!

THAT'S the California Spirit!
