I have also noticed less boating on the Colorado River. I guess racing your boat up and down the river at $4 a gallon costs too much.

Nice change. Atlanta seems to be still congested in my area, but it's mainly cause they are doing construction on all lanes in downtown right now. During the Olympics in 1996 there was a HUGE campaign to get people off the roads because they predicted total gridlock with all the extra event traffic.. Alot of people actually took vacations, closed their businesses, or worked from home during the Olympics. The result? Rush hour basically didn't exist in Atlanta for a couple of weeks. It was incredible. -Cameron ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:264860 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
