 RW>> As the crow flys, you would cross the bay from Oakland. Driving, you

Yeup. There's all kinds of ways around the bay area to get to Palo Alto
without going through Santa Clara. The difference in the folks who have
lived in the area and those in New Jerkey looking at maps is that it isn't
rocket science and the shorter the route the better.


    Have a day!
