caution. I have seen brush fires around the area and the National
Weather Service is issuing "dry weather" alerts.

LARGE CROWD OPPOSES METRO FUNDING
I will miss the Sheriff's briefing but will have an aide
there. I will be attending a Board of Supervisors Work Session on
Rail to Dulles and Loudoun.
I was not at Wednesday's Lovettsville (in rural
Loudoun)discussion about Metro. David LaRock tells me: there was an
amazing show of anti-rail sentiments. The presentation revealed
many of the serious flaws in the project, and the questions and
comments that followed showed that those in attendance, about 75
people, mostly opposing Metro.

Even using the very low-ball Loudoun County-generated
cost numbers, Metro is a tough sell.
Projections put anticipated revenue alongside Loudoun County's
own incomplete cost projections and the bottom line is that Metro
to Loudoun is an open-ended (blank check to Metro) proposition
involving a forty million dollar annual payment for construction
for six years and $20 million and more each year for operating
without any idea how to finance $13 BILLION in identified
repairs.
If Loudoun opts out, we still get metro to Dulles
Airport with ZERO costs to the Loudoun taxpayer.
