   This is to any and all that slug from Crystal City in the afternoon.  How popular is the line at Crystal Park 2?  I never even knew one existed until I saw it on this site.

	I don't know how popular they are but today was my first slug from Rt 3 to the Pentagon. I would be interested in a Crystal city to Rt 3 slug line. thirdbag

	I think it's not used very much. When I started working in Crystal City, I stopped by one day in July to try to slug from there: there was no indication that a slug line existed. I asked some other people going to the other Crystal City slug line, and they didn't know about it either. I've resorted to slugging from Pentagon. How about drumming up some interest? I know Rolling Valley Mall drivers often take slugs to Crystal City--just need to get them informed about the pm pick-up at Crystal Park 2. Recommend setting a start date (mid-late October) so folks know when to look for it. gs

	I'm all for it... Crystal Park 2 would be a much better leaving spot for those of us in "lower" Crystal City.

	Cool...I put some posts out on other boards and see if there are any other "bites" out there. And maybe we can shoot for Nov. 1st as a start date. Out of curiosity, to the folks that would benefit from this...where are you headed in the afternoon??

	To all interested in starting this line back up: 1)Be sure to allow plenty of time to spread the word - your 1 Nov 02 date should work. 2)If you want to develop a flyer I will post it on the website and help you spread the word. Just email it to me. 3) I can create an "instant survey" to help gage interest. Let me know how I can help!

	I'm always heading to Tacketts Mill, and there are usually at least 3 people walking within view of me when I leave park 2 for the current line. Admin, if you could set up a survey that would give us some idea of the interest, please do so. Anybody else interested in this? We need more than 2 people really...
