For 10 years I lived in Jersey City, NJ and rode the
PATH train to & from NYC on a daily basis! The cost was $1.00 throughout those 10 years. The train was clean and reliable and I always managed to sneak in twenty minutes of shut-eye en route to my gig at Macy*s. Now that I'm here in Los Angeles and everybody and his mama has a car, I miss those days when all I needed was $1.00 to take me to wherever I could find "happiness" for the day!!! What I know for sure
these days is that owning/needing a car is severely overrated!!
I agree that mass-transit in Los Angeles is terrible. Your choices are the smelly bus or the subway that just plain freaks me out. I would love a clean, above ground light rail or monorail system.
