Mel on Wheels - Amtrak Style

By Mel Greenberg

Good morning America.

I know, this is usually the time I would have said good evening and been deep into shuteye while the rest of the world gets going.

However, we're on the way to Mystics Media Day in the nation's capital.

The more important news as the guru once again corners the technology market, this blog is coming right from an Amtrak dining car where we're serving food for thought -- wait there goes the Susquehanna River, er there went the Susequehanna River -- as the car rocks and rolls, but the connection has been steady from Philly all the way to here so far, thanks to the purchase of an Air Card that looks like it will overcome problems when hotspots are not available.

So as the train crawls into Aberdeen, we'll be back later today, maybe right before D.C. As they say on, never mind, the Mexican stuff is tomorrow, as in Friday.
