They want to run the damn thing right up the middle of the San Francisco Peninsula past the homes to the ultra-uber wealthy in Palo Alto, Menlo Park and Atherton. Not much complaining here yet, though. Big surprise that the PTBs haven’t shut it down.

Tunnel under the Angeles National forest?
Good luck with that.
1: It’s a pretty sever fault zone, ever hear of the San Andreas Fault?
2: the environazis will find an endangered earthworm or something else, lawsuits would take a thousand years.
3: California needs reservoirs and a distribution system, not bullet trains!

They are called Kangaroo Rats; used to trap and sell them for pets when I was a kid out there.
