George,

I know you've helped me out before. You sure seem to know your way around that madhouse. So, I got another one for ya.

Any ideas on the quickest way to get from Newark-Penn Station to the Meadowlands. I looked on NJ Transit's website, and it looks like the best route is roughly 1hr in transit (that is, if I configured the itinerary correctly). That would be about $5 each (for two of us). The other option is a cab for $35 ($40 w/tip, divided by two). SO, an extra $15 for what seems to be a much easier commute. The other factor, however, is traffic on a Friday evening. Will this make that cab ride much longer? Would we be better off taking NJ Transit? We are staying in the Hilton which is connected to Newark-Penn Station.

Thanks again for your help, dude.
