It might       not connect directly to your destination but it connects to other routes       which probably do.              I'm now living in Manchester and within 100 feet of my door are four bus       stops, two of them on what I am told is the busiest bus route in Europe.       At peak times buses carrying 85 passengers leave every three minutes in       each direction.                            --       Bernard Peek       bap@shrdlu.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
