It really is a sad sad situation.

But I've been thinking about this all day. If some form of rail transit is to remain in this country, can't we come up with something that can stop a train in a relatively short distance? I know I'm not an authority on this but I've heard it can take miles to stop a really heavy freight train, probably much less to stop a commuter train.

Whatever we have now it was not enough.

So now we have 10 dead and 200 injured. Will anything change? I suspect not and it breaks my heart.

Does that make me a bleeding heart? Or a soft headed liberal? Or somebody that would really like to solve the problem?
