<< Is this another attempt by greedy
 agriculture interests to farm the rail right-of-way.   >>

I always get a little nervous when someone starts talking about "greedy 
agricultural interests".  Agricultural interests in this country allow us
to 
be the best fed country in the world.  And when all is said and done,
having 
enough to eat is probably the most driving force in the life of any living 
creature.  Americans may not choose the healthiest food available, they may

eat junk food rather than fruits, vegetables, and meat in their more
natural 
form, but the farmers in this country produce more food to the acre than 
anywhere else in the world.  I would say there are some businesses a great 
deal more greedy than farmers.  And anyone who has not farmed cannot
conceive 
of the setbacks that are handed to the farmer...the weather, the pests, the

diseases of plants (or livestock), just in time to ruin a crop.  Something
to 
think about ......
