I dunno, I tend to take a positive outlook. At least BER will also serve as a high speed rail hub to nearby cities. If I can get to go LAX-BER on AB and take the ICE from BER-PRG I'll be more than happy (I have a niece studying in Prague). At least I don't have to go through LHR which is a pain in the butt.
