Bullet Train

Why doesn't the U.S. have a reliable railway system? It would be so convenient for everyone if there was a great train system. It is somewhat slower than air, but it doesn't require burning the Earth's precious fossil fuels.

Tomorrow, I take off to southern Japan via bullet train. I'm really excited. I plan on visiting Hiroshima's Peace Park and Nuclear Bomb Museum. I think it will be somewhat different from Nagasaki's Nuclear Bomb Museum. Different images, different stories. I'll post pictures when I get there.
