Social Darwinism

Filed under: Imported

Are people in Houston just complete morons? I ask that because, according to today's Houston Chronicle, there have now been 58 light-rail related accidents in that city since the trains began running in January.

Now here in the Twin Cities, the Hiawatha light rail line began operating in June. Throughout the Spring there was much handwringing about potential safety hazards, largely based on Houston's experience. Yet as best I can determine, not a single Twin Cities driver has managed to collide with a light rail train. 

Perhaps I'll be the first. Then I'll have to move to Houston.
