Amtrak zings Hayden live-tweeter on train ride

It is unlikely Tom Matzzie will be hearing any background conversation on his Amtrak ride Thursday.

Matzzie, whose Twitter feed went viral last month as he livetweeted a background conversation between Former National Security Agency Director Michael Hayden and reporters during a train ride, was zinged by Amtrak Thursday as he announced he was boarding a train from Washington to Trenton, N.J.

After Matzzie sent out a string of tweets in October while sitting in front of Hayden on the Acela train, he eventually had the former NSA director pose for a picture with him.
