You are grossly exagerating!  Tri-Met is nowhere near as aweful as that,
in my experience.  And from Beaverton, it's a straight shot from the MAX
to downtown, transfer to the streetcar or a bus and to PSU.  It will
take very little longer than driving, if you park at the MAX station in
Beaverton.

It amazes me that people think that 18 is "good mileage".  That totally
SUCKS.  Good mileage starts around 30 or 40.  Unfortunatly, most
vehicles don't get good mileage.

Oh, and thanks for the "fresh air", drivers.  Mighty kind of you.
