Good Morning America, How Are You?

A few weeks ago, Zjabs had to go to the Southern Tier for work (does Nick still feel I'm overpaid?).

I went by the salt mine on the way down (where I tell my daughter I worked when I was 8 years old, until the damned do-gooders made sure her life would be much easier than mine.  She usually rolls her eyes)

There were a number of trains there.  I read the graffiti as I drove by- and I saw one that said simply "Islam Sucks".  It made me wonder when the WOTR took to riding the rails.

I would actually like to know the story behind that particular tag- why did the person spend their time gaining access to the car, breaking various laws (trespass, destruction of property, etc) to put forth that message?  If only the cars could talk...
