Strange as it seems, that was the word around town:   "Car Fare"     North Shore is alot like
Street Car vs Trolley?    I guess these days anything does go:     Here in Jacksonville, the St Johns
River has the North Bank and the South Bank sides.   When you a speaking Pittsburghese you can
call it what ever you like!
