Sure, I'll just bike through 4 feet of snow to get to town. Roads don't need to fall within specific tolerances to operate either, like tracks. Have you ever been to the country? Anywhere that snows? You sound like "city folk" to me and you throwing around "closed minded" and "genius" when someone else brings up a contradictory point makes you sound more like "city asshole". Maybe keep the conversation civil, eh?

There are several alternatives to trains. It was the appropriate example for cities. This is dead simple. If you're gonna be a condescending, mocking asshole all while completely missing the point, you're gonna get some sass. Simple as, fuck off if you can't handle it.
