That's one cool station! As I recall it's something like 10 stories
underground! That makes for one MAJOR escelator <sp> ride! There used to
be an Egghead store a few blocks from the station. I've still got the 14.4k
Practical Peripherals external Modem I bought there 10 years ago. I purchased
it so I could download Linux software (which I'd been running for a few
months) faster. Geez, it just hit me, that means that I've finally passed
the 10 year mark for Internet usage (yes, I realize I've not been online as
long as a lot of people here).
