  1. Our Congressman Jim is riding a wave of media exposure. Last week the radio show “Living on Earth,” out of Cambridge Mass., did an in-depth interview about 21st Century interstate hi-speed rail, and other alternatives to cars and highways – including the Oberstar favorite: bicycle paths.
    KAXE Radio carried it, and rebroadcast it on the Morning Show.
    Reporter Jeff Young asked Jim intelligent questions, and we learned that this is a $500 Billion dollar program, including the $50 Billion trust fund to keep it current.
