    It seems like a no brainer, to me.


    It would help out with many things, theoretically. It would also give Houston some incentive in building out it's light rail line, like a modern city (yes, I understand some of the reasons behind this). Minneapolis and St. Paul are connected by a light rail, for God's sake.

    Southwest is probably padding the pockets of some county judge or commissioner.

    "Pipeline transferring oil? Sure, no problem!"
    "Energy efficient, high speed rail? Don't tread on me!"
