And this, ladies and gentlemen, is what it boils down to. You *want* things your own way, but you are too fucking spoiled to fight fo it - so instead you whine and moan.
Did you even read the rest of the post? Let me requote what I actually wrote, in its entirety.
Agreed, if you want or need to get between cities faster than land-based travel will allow, flying is in fact a requirement. That was, in fact, my point.
If you *need* to be somewhere 1000 miles or more away within a few
hours, driving, riding Greyhound, or riding Amtrak are NOT OPTIONS.
If you *need* to get to Hawaii, Puerto Rico, etc., driving, riding
Greyhound, or riding Amtrak are NOT OPTIONS.
