Amtrak to Burlington was my second visit to UVM with my mom after I was accepted there. -

Anyone ever take Amtrak to killington? I did 12 years ago, but didn’t take it to rutland and instead got off at Fair Haven station, which no longer exists. That station averaged 6 passengers per day, which believe it or not is not even close to being the least used Amtrak station (some stations average less than 1 passenger per day). Fair haven station was 0.9 miles from the VT border, so I didn’t even ride in Vermont for a full mile ive also taken Amtrak to Burlington Vermont, it took hours longer than driving. I had always assumed passenger rail was on a 4ish track ROW with overhead electric wires. It was weird going on a single track, no over head wires, in a passenger train thru the rolling fields of Vermont. At one point there is a pullover for one train to let other train pass. In CT we had to switch from electric to diesel locomotive -
I wear the cage (amazing to me that each team has that one guy who still wears an open face helmet) i didn’t notice the mask at all on the ice, but did notice it on the bench.

Had hockey last night after the 2 week county mandated Covid break. We were required to wear masks even while on the ice, which was surprisingly not bad, by the half way point of the 1st period I barely remembered it was there.

I was shocked how crowded weekday mornings were at blue last season. There used to be like 7-8 people for opening, now there are like 50 people on a weekday morning

That’s hearsay!!!!!!!!!!

If your superior said “we have vehicles to take to jersey, and nj has informed us they are monitoring tags, so we have to plan this.” would you say, “superior you are wrong! A guy on the internet told me you were wrong!”
-
Correct
-
When a superior at your job tells you something, you dismiss it as hearsay?
-
There are EZ pass readers all over populated parts of America nowhere near tolls that are used solely for data collecting. I believe The NY Times did an article a few years back
-
So the New Jersey state government, who is purchasing the fleet vehicles, lied to the transporters, who then lied to us?
-
Our transporters have informed us that New Jersey and Delaware are keeping a database of out of state plates coming in. If the government decides you’ve entered nj or de too many times, they will be in contact

Anecdotal evidence doesn’t fly with this crowd...it will work with some of the ex-cons you see at the bar (during a pandemic)
-
I already have. As I said, there is nothing left cool to see, I have seen all the internet has to offer
-
The problem I am having is there is nothing cool or exciting left to see on the internet, I have literally seen it all. There are literally not a single road rage video or ski fight video left to see

We will have to agree to disagree. 10,000 is way more than 5, especially when those 10,000 are screaming and spitting.
-
Serious question...it’s more dangerous to have thanksgiving dinner with 5 family members than be in a crowd of 10,000?
-
You really think nobody got the virus in crowds of tens of thousands? Even I will admit there are other factors, especially bars, which you went to a lot during this
-
I can agree with this
-
We will have to agree to disagree. As long as I live I will never stop believing the rioting/protesting/looting/celebration is the main reason we have Covid so bad. For months we’ve been told to social distance, but suddenly crowds of tens of thousands are ok? How does that make sense? With all due respect, using your logic we can say lockdowns are completely useless, as Europe had socialist style complete lockdowns and are still getting ravaged by the virus. Also, there have been riots in Europe. I also posted an article showing a girl wearing a mask at a protest and still got Covid. It’s very stressful that my ski season could be affected due to selfish people. I’ve been acting responsible during this yet my life is at risk cause people wanted free Nike’s smh. Also, I find the attack on families offensive. Seeing family for thanksgiving bad...running around the streets yelling and spitting everywhere good. The double standards are ridiculous and reek of political motivation

Lol it spreads at home with a small group of family but not in crowds of tens of thousands lol. Don’t pee on my leg and tell me it’s raining
-
This. I’ve been saying this since May. If it wasn’t for the riots/protests/celebrations/looting, this virus would be under control now.
