#1 Thats exactly what I do when the METRO lags. In the US a similar occurrence would result in a gov't funding, emergency bus plan for the ridership, immediately followed by a raving, fully televised (CNN) demands from some communist caucus for Congressional Investigations of the rail company discrimination. Last week they got away with vandalizing the Blue Train. They are headlong into the abyss it would appear. Back to leather Cadillacs and foot trails for all.
