1. Did you notice how he didn't mention we should stay off "trains".

Choo choo Amtrac !

3. I think you can open the window on a train.

They get cranky if you try that on a jet!

[Sequoia]

8. I bet they do !!

16. Trains are a lit-tle different

than planes.

[Sequoia]

You can open windows.

7. Could it be possible that Joe knows what he's talking about?

CNN just announced that a plane from Germany was diverted from Dulles to Boston because a 53yr old woman was exhibiting "flu-like symptoms". Plane was met by an ambulance.

12. While staying off planes is good (if overly cautious) advice to give a relative, it's bad for a

public official to say that, since it hurts the travel industry at a critical time.

18. Either it's not really good advice, pr else people are risking their health to

keep the airlines' bottom lines healthy!

13. Listening to the DR show on NPR this morning, she had a panel of health experts on and the question

came up about Biden's comments....the consensus was that time will tell if Joe was right or not.

I think that is the sensible response - no one knows where this is going. And I am hoping Joe was wrong.

19. If he's got it,

perhaps he should be quarantined.
