Yep, that's it. Amtrak replied to an earlier guess of "Free roundtrip?" with "That's a great guess."

The Rona is an RNA virus it will continue to "select for" and make changes ie mutate until it finds it happy medium. It does not want to kill us all then it would end up killing itself. This last variant may or may not become dominant it has something like 35 mutations which from what Ive heard is quite a few in a single jump and could be quite fragile. Remember all the other new and improved variants of the Greek alphabet like Alpha Gama and Moo.
Well, today is Friday November 26; the "day after Thanx.....and "the tension mounts".
Now of course if the concerns over this "South African variant" that I only learned of this AM on the Breakfast Room's TV, prove to have foundation, who's going to want to travel anywhere by any mode?
