And we all hope you both do!

For interesting perspectives on the monorail, George Knapp's articles, which started almost two years before the construction of it, are pretty sobering. And prescient.

I think they should change the name from MONO RAIL to MONO RIDER

I took a taxi from the airport to my home in the Lakes and the fare was $3,282,204. I got long-hauled - the driver drove east from the airport, all the way around the world, rather than the more direct westbound route.

Ok, this is only slightly less believable than a $188 fare in post #25.
