Why It Matters

I fear I’ve tipped my hand with this week’s Choose and Defend. Earlier this week I launched into a musical rant about how much I hate airlines, so you know they aren’t going to get my vote.

But don’t let that sway you. Maybe you can overlook all of the inconveniences and still see the shimmering glory of the jet age. Security, baggage claim, and sitting around gates aside, airlines remain our fastest mode of travel, after all.

Regardless, in order to play Choose and Defend you must follow two simple rules: 1) Choose one of the following, and only one; 2) Defend your choice in the comments section. Failure to follow either of these rules will result in waking up with your hand between two pillows.

Assuming time is not an issue, would you prefer to travel cross country via:

 

– Plane

 

– Train

 

– or Automobile?

 

Answers must fit inside the overhead compartment, and come on people: Let’s make Laura B. proud.
