Time will tell; I hope you're right. BTW, I've always felt an inter island and comprehensive Ferry system was a much greater priority than rail. Such a system would be flexible and invaluable in an emergency. Furthermore, in my biased opinion, the powers to be should make UH Athletics, especially football, a very high priority. I view UH sports as an opportunity to showcase the island; it's a huge opportunity and makes good business sense. The Rail project is debatable.
