hahahaha. Couple points. When in school, got time to travel, and travel cheaply. And you happened to cover the places I've been to or lived in, and I'm like you man, for some reason, I'm super into riding in subways. By the way, for new and nice subway systems, check out HK and Taiwan. Dude, in HK, you can lug all your stuff to the Kowloon station, and check your bags for a flight at the station! Then, you can just hangout, eat, or do whatever until like a couple of hours before boarding, then, take the air train on steroids to the airport. Pretty dope.

Howard - how many cities have you been to!

Yeah, Athens Metro is really modern and nice. It's either built or renovated for the Olympics so it's brand spankin new. I used the Metro quite a bit to get around the city, as a tourist. One crazy thing I saw was a girl fainting, convulsing, and puking in my car in the morning. She must have partied too hard the night before or something.
