Rail is the new Pipeline in Canada and North Central US. BE WARNED.

Wild Idaho Rising Tide

Highway 95 is the sacrifice zone for megaload-blocked Highway 12. Now north Idaho tracks are the alternative route for the stalled Keystone XL pipeline. "Crude oil shipments account for 85 trains a day...These long, heavy trains share the rails with the Empire Builder,...[which] carries more passengers than any of Amtrak’s long-distance trains...Crude oil production in North Dakota is setting records every month and is predicted to surpass one million barrels a day next year, from next to nothing five years ago. In October, almost 70 percent of the oil was shipped by rail, and much of that by BNSF. In the absence of new pipelines, including the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, rail has become the alternative."

***** I think that the essential reason I am alone, fight alone, work alone,
live alone, Stand alone... is because I've come to learn the link below. I don't know that anyone else sees it as I do, and hence, alone.  The solitude is very painful, but to realize what I've just stated, that I alone, or near alone, see that ChristLikeness, Loving, by whatever name, is the only True religion, as Jesus saw, objectively, well,
that alone is sufficient reason for me to continue to walk the path, as long
as my life sentence happens to be.

My major Cross, Torture, is my total impotence, Failure, to share the Learning.  Alone.
