WTF is up with these train people? Is there a million-member bullet train advocacy group somewhere? I haven't heard bullet trains mentioned ever in in the context of our economy, the environment, politics, etc, yet they've got the #1 issue by some 3000+ points?

The alert is done and will start going out shortly. Due to the volume, they typically go out in waves so some will get it right away while others won't get it until later this evening. Regardless, it will come.

Here's the alert:

Dear Rich,


President-elect Obama has asked the American people for input. He wants us to tell him what we would like to see him do over the next four years. To facilitate this, his transition team set up an area of their website for input.

Together, we can all let Obama know that we demand our rights!

Guys, try to post links in chat on your tables while playing. Also,(and maybe this is taking it a little too far but meh who cares) would it be possible to contact FTP and Stars and have them post links in the main lobby or something?

I really think we can at the very least keep this in the top 10 which would be awesome. anybody keep in touch with Nate Silver (Nate. on 2+2)? Maybe someone can get him to post something on his site fivethirtyeight?
