**Not likely, many bishops have barred it from their dioceses, and the number of staff who actually know how to say traditional mass is pretty small.**

Where are you getting this information? And speaking in generalities, too? MANY bishops??

I can speak for this diocese and there are several parishes where I could attend a Latin Mass. I choose not to.

According to ecclesiadei.org, 120 dioceses have at least one traditional mass. That leave 57 dioceses with exactly zero traditional masses allowed. And even in those with the traditional mass, e.g. Pittsburgh, they are few and far apart. In the 6 county Pittsburgh diocese , there is a grand total of one parish with the traditional mass.

"I can speak for this diocese and there are several parishes where I could attend a Latin Mass. I choose not to."

The USCCB link at the archdiocesan web site lists only one Sunday Latin Mass in the diocese, the 8:00 AM Mass at St. Birgetta's. If you know of several, I would sure like to know where they are.
By the way, no adjacent diocese north of Sacramento has a regularly scheduled Sunday Latin Mass according to this link.

That's your loss. Do you think any Catholic had a "choice" 50 years ago? Now you've got "31 Flavors", take your pick.
