I'd guess when I knew her she was in her early 30's.I haven't seen her in about 25 years so I wouldn't say she old. Just more mature. Maybe I could get away with saying she's older. |

The "station" was not discovered, because it was never lost.We always *knew* that it was there. And it is not a "station"; it is a "shell" which mean that at the point were it would have crossed the line that they were building they built a tunnel and platform segments, so that when the line was built, it would not cause disruption to the existing line. The shell is only as long as the other line is wide. ROAR |

So then what you are asking is "Has anybody been there recently.?"If you want to get a good job and make big money, you need to know how to use the language properly. Practice this every time you write, take the time to do it right, and you will look like a much smarter person than you really are. [See, look at me. I finished in the bottom 550 of my high school class. But I seem to be doing better now, wouldn't you say?] ROAR |

Most of it has been closed off so there was not need for seveal stair ways and they were removed. thats what the open spaces in the celing are. |
