Ted, thanks for all your thoughts. I'll respond to one of them because it's the only one I have an issue with, not because I think you're full of it (at least not this time <G>): Every freeway built in S. CA since the 1960s was at overcapacity within a year of opening. Building freeways is not a solution to the traffic mess in S. CA. I think the difference is between a 90 minute commute and a 75 minute commute. Either way people are going to be stuck in traffic jams, but that doesn't mean new freeways shouldn't be built where necessary. Of course, the network of freeways is already pretty tight, so the only thing left to do is widen the bottlenecks. And there are plenty of obvious ones, more than what the budget allows over the next ten years. By the way, have you seen "The O.C." on Fox? I've only seen the first episode, but it was funny to see Newport Beach residents act so snooty around a guy from Chino. One, the O.C. isn't Beverly Hills. And two, Chino is the new hot spot for real estate, given the migration from Orange County to Riverside. Tenchusatsu
