People traveling from Atlanta to Chattanooga for only one dollar always have the best intentions.

Is there a way to block this service?

If you are going to Atlanta you might want to research the crime rate of the Marta station on Peachtree before you book what will ultimatly be your final vacation.

From my understanding you can also get a ride from Chattanooga to Knoxville for $1 and from Knoxville to D.C. for $15. I see a cheap way for Senators and Congresspeople to commute.

That's good but our senator owns his own bus.

[Warkitty]

Wow Prof. You're pretty much down on everything aren't you?

[Babs]

Roy Exum had a column about it in the Chattanoogan a day or so ago. Looks pretty good!
