Great BRT simulation about Oakland

Now it seems obvious to me that we can duplicate this idea at higher speeds along the I-15 desert corridor, no? Then Vegas and LA and points between become one community, united by behemoth buses that cruise at 120 MPH and carry 200 passengers.
How do the forces line up?
Between the intelligent asphalt plan and the steel rail plan? In the case of I-15, the DesertXpress rail folks have Reid, a senator running for his life, a consultant, and a CEO of an imaginary railroad.
The intelligent highway plan has behind it: Google, FedEx, Greyhound, the private bus industry, UPS, toll highway companies, car drivers, local businesses along the route, the venture capital industry, existing and expanding BRT capacity, the probability of generating income for local districts, smooth integration between HOT lanes, BRT lanes and protected high speed lanes.
No contest, passenger rail should surrender immediately.
