EMAIL FROM Deborah:

Sal,

I've been in Sydney, Australia for the past 5 weeks. Just after I arrived, the new Lane Cove tunnel opened - offering free passage for the first month. A week ago the tolls began. Today, I took the company shuttle to and from the office. When asked why the traffic was so bad today, the shuttle bus driver replied, "It's like this every day, ever since the Lane Cove tunnel opened. Everyone is on this road now in an attempt to avoid the toll." It was bumper to bumper for 2/3's of the way.

Cheers.
