Fun ... Amtrak has nothing to do with it but I'm sure doesn't mind the extra ridership it generates ...

I propose we all ride Amtrak that day and moon them back.

Of course, now that I think about it... if two groups of people moon each other, and no one is turned around to see it, did the mooning actually take place?

“We’d like to see an end to this,” an Amtrack spokesman said sternly.

That's just a little bit more public exposure than I'm comfortable with.

I'm not sure train riders deserve this. We should be rewarding them for choosing mass transit. I'd rather see a mass mooning of the LA freeway.

From the FAQ:
I'm overweight, in fact very obease, is it O.K. if I moon?
Yes yes, please "moon" with us. We need people like you for the extra high intensity mooning you can provide.

The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald... the mooning of Amtrak's Empire Builder... oh where are the great folk composers of the 21st century?
