That I could believe. I live in Surrey, though, not Kits -- which means I bus to the SkyTrain, and after that I get my choice of 25, 41, 10, 9, 4, or sometimes 49 or 31. In that regard, I find the connections alright, especially since I sometimes have errands to run on 4th, Broadway, or King Edward. : What UBC really needs is a SkyTrain, or some other : sort of LRT running out to it with busses feeding the LRT line. It more or less has that with the 31, though. -- Peter T.
