[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do folks think the well-off don't take the metro! I get the feeling we've some transplants from Charlotte or Atlanta or Dallas here, places where there are class/race connotations to using public transport. Go to Shanghai or Singapore or Tokyo and then try to dis public transport![/quote] +1. [/quote] I live in Georgetown and take Metrobus to work every morning, as do my neighbors. We are all white collar professionals. Even suburbanites in the DC area are aghast at the prospect of riding *gasp* the BUS! They simply don't get it. My bus winds through Georgetown, to Dupont, then down 20th St to K Street. It works perfectly for me. [/quote]
