Relying on the creaky old subway to get to and from work everyday, I would give an arm and a leg to be able to take a high speed bullet train to my place of employment. Since that does not look like a possibility in the near or distant future, the best I can do is gaze at these techtastic trains and dream of a 3.5 minute commute.
Though I suppose I could move to Tokyo and find work as I believe most of these silver bullets are over there, it's easier just to browse through these techtastic trains and complain about my commute.
