[Kirk Harmon]

Mark, You are so correct! For individuals like ourselves that have no option 
but to use Public Transportation without alternatives to get to where we 
need to go This crisis is crucial to us. We must start calling our State 
Legislator's  as well as our cities and towns to let them know that this is 
something that cannot be allowed to continue! If we don't emphasize the 
importance of getting Students to class and employees to work, then our 
recession will only get worse! Your Friend in the cause, Kirk Harmon
