If you’re operating unvaccinated, then I’m afraid the joke will be on you. Good luck to you.

So if it's not about infecting others, then why mandate it?

No one needs luck, most unvaccinated people already got sick and have greater immunity than you. Besides, what do you think the rate of death is for people of working age?

Jeebus.

I was going to post a ticket price and a time enroute for a Point A-Point B round trip on Amtrak that is a common airline destination, but the Amtrak site kept giving me the infinite "spinning wheel of death".

True story.


(Rode Amtrak as a kid. Nothing like experiencing the "romance of the rails" when you flush the toilet and see the tracks whizzing your wizz out on the tracks below at an average speed of 35 MPH).

Sure we do. We fly that many pax in three days, I'm sure we could squeeze them in over a year.
