Man, its been a couple years, and I'm really only familiar with Manhattan, but I'd say hit the rush tickets outlet in Times Square and see at least one show on the cheap - its worth it :) > So what are y'all reccommendations for a tourist to visit the > city?

If you do drive in a metro area and aren't 100% comfy with it, the best advice is just go slow, don't get bunched up by it, and don't worry about pulling off into a gas station to check the map :) (oh yeah, and the diamonds painted into that lane off to the side are carpool/bus lanes only... as I found out at 8:30am one sunday morning in Pittsburgh.. I also learned that its not a good idea to drive the wrong way down a one-way street... ;D) -j- _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
