It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Reagan International has great transit service (a stop on the Metro) so I wondered what the fuss was. Then I read the article and realized this project includes San Diego and San Jose, and it made more sense. But what made it really click was the bit at the end about airport employees. Airports are HUGE centers of employment, and employees need to be able to arrive and leave 24 hours a day. In that respect, this seems like a very good move.
