Kansas State University isn't far from Wilson Lake, and it hasn't happened there. I'm hoping that rail technology will keep improving until the Great Plains as they actually exist will be in the "sweet spot". It wouldn't have to be as fast as air travel, but if travelling from KC to Denver were 3 hours rather than over 8, we'd live in a different country.

I'm not suggesting that TSA should just get worse and worse until air travel takes as long as train travel.
