Abstract Benita Dodd of the Georgia Public Policy Foundation incorrectly indicated that the Athens-to-Atlanta "Brain Train" route would only offer two train trips per day. This statement is simply not true. The truth is that the Brain Train program calls for the installation of new tracks parallel to existing lines, which would double or triple capacity for most areas. In fact, adding car and truck traffic is the exact opposite of what the Brain Train will accomplish. Regarding Confederate History Month --- I am a proud Southerner, and I say, again, why are we finding ways to formally divide people? I'd prefer to see this not pass and for Black History Month to also be abolished. Instead let's establish something like "Medical Miracle Month" and honor those, both black and white, who have contributed to the saving of lives through medicine.
