"The true mad scientist does not make public appearances! He does not wear the "Hello, my name is.." badge!
He strikes from below like a viper or on high like a penny dropped from the tallest building around!
He only has one purpose--Do bad things to good people! Mit science! What good is science if no one gets hurt?!"

TarpleyG: The artistic style is more reminiscent of Soviet propaganda than it is of that used in Nazi Germany, at least the stuff I can find on the 'Net.
I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.

Are they trying to emulate communist/nazi propaganda?

That's what I was thinking. I hope - really really hope - we're right.

I thought this thread was going to be about why Amtrak is so important that it can't make a profit and needs to be funded by the government some more.

The poster is just scary, in some many ways.

There was a thread on THR about it.  It's real & it is on Maryland's trains. Sad
