Yeah, I always wonder about public transport in 3rd world countries?the 
first time I went to Greece in the 1990s, I was sure that I would not 
survive the taxi ride from the airport to the centre of Athens. And of 
course Greece is not realy 3rd world, and neither is Romania where I am 
going on Monday, but still, neither country is exactly Denmark either, or 
not even Spain.

Cheers,
Nathan
