Why is it even an issue? There was great contention about the building of I-66 inside the Beltway. A compromise was finally worked out that it would be built, but with only two lanes in each direction. What good is a compromise if one party to it is free to renege? Even if the promise shouldn't be eternally binding, it should certainly remain in effect for as long as anyone who was living in Arlington at the time of the compromise is still living there. So the issue shouldn't come up until maybe the year 2070 at the earliest. -- Keith F. Lynch - http://keithlynch.net/ Please see http://keithlynch.net/email.html before emailing me.
