[ale] [OT]atlanta beltway need this!!!

[Jim Kinney]

whatever the light rail mess is Atlanta wants $B+ for.

I'm a fan of monorails for people movers. Someone needs to do a
business costs analysis of Disney World's monorail and compare to a
comparable length and daily passenger count municiple/private system
elsewhere. Factor in "green" level as well to make it even more
acceptable.
