Lenny, I never saw your original post until just now.

I'm hoping Goad's comment of "your in the know" means he's talked to you and given you the low-down. If not, I can give you my two cents' worth. Public transpo in STL is OK, depending on where you are and how far you have to go. Where will you be staying? (what part of town) and where will you be needing to go?

I don't think I've got your phone number. If you want to talk about it (might be easier that way), send me your phone number in a PM and I'll give you a call.

your in the know

I'll be in town June 14th-20th. Of course I'll be busy a much of the time taking tours and other "educational" stuff, but I'll be free most nights and have Wednesday and Friday to explore, etc. I'd love to hang out and skate while I'm in town!

I've no details yet, but sometime in June I'll be in St. Louis for a trip for my masters program. It looks like we'll be given lots of free time to explore the town independently so I'll be sure to bring my boards. ANYWAY, I'm considering taking Amtrak into town instead of driving. Before I make that decision, however, I should know: what's the public transit system like in town? Easy to use? Easy to get around town? Worth using? etc. etc. etc.
