Is the question we are being asked to decide whether we are going to prefer rail travel in the corridors as opposed to air travel? In other words, it is sort of forcing a change. I think right now we have either.... The preferred routes, at least in terms of the short window, might be car or air. Are we asking to make a decided shift in what the backbone of the transportation system will be?
