I grew up in CA; they were pumping the HSR plan when I was in high school over 20 years ago (FUCK I was in high school over 20 years ago 🙃). There has been almost no development of the project whatsoever since then.

I want it to happen, and it would be a great thing for the state, but I’ll believe it when I see it. I wish I could be more optimistic about it, but jesus fuck the nimbyism is out of fucking control in CA.
