Anticipating that some readers here might think you're exaggerating, I'll go as far to say that our dank, dark, foreboding Bethesda Transfer Station will add to the possibility of a big crime increase. I also venture to say that the ones minimizing the threat really don't use the Transfer Station, much less public transport. Who'd be crazy enough to take the Metro with Christmas packages with Bang and Olofsun, for instance, emblazoned?
