Wow - I'd never heard of such a thing happening. That is, though, one thing that is definitely true about the DC Metro system - it is _incredibly_ safe. DC was, for a long time the murder capital of the US. Up until a year or two ago, I believe that there had _never_ been a murder on a Metro train, and the one that did occur happened, I believe, at the hands of someone having a psychotic break - not the sort of thing that the police can prevent with any real success. ===== Gautam Mukunda [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Freedom is not free" http://www.mukunda.blogspot.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
