	They are now looking at  Speed--Tables  to get articulated motor
coaches across them without much fuss.  Seems to be rather successful in
Portland and they are testing the idea here.

	They did that in a large parking lot here and have recently removed
them or scaled them back  --  down the Peninsula somewhere  --  too many
complaints.

	Auto is king here  --  will have to see what happens!
