Take the Beltway from Silver Spring to Northern Virginia, that is
through Rockville, Bethesda, Mclean (not PG County, Old Town, etc).
This way is at least twenty minutes faster.  Cross the American
Legion Bridge.  Go past Northern Virginia's Exit 14 GW Parkway,
Exit 13 Georgetown Pike, 12 Dulles Airport, 11 Rt 123, 10 Rt 7,
9 I-66? 8 Arlington Blvd, 7 Gallows, 6 Little River Tnpk to...
EXIT 5--BRADDOCK ROAD.

Get off at Braddock Road and swoop to your right (westward).
Head out on Braddock Road miles and miles until you see Rt 123
again.  George Mason is at the NE corner of this intersection.

Or Get off back at I-66 and head out West towards Front Royal
and exit out at Rt 123 after the Vienna Metro Station, heading
south.  Take Rt 123 south, pass some medical center on the right,
pass through Fairfax town center and you'll eventually see
George Mason on your left before you get to Braddock.

Either way will get  you to George Mason in about 25 minutes
from the American Legion Bridge (with a minimum of traffic).

Terence

ps  If you get off the Beltway at Braddock Rd heading west,
you'll head out about 5 miles, passing a Giant on your left
at about the 1.5 mi point, New Guinea Rd a little while later
and then one or two more shopping centers on your left side.
One's a Safeway and the other's another Giant I think.
There's lots of other things cluttered around these grocery
stores like banks, Kinko's and the like.
