		Amtrak was required by the provisions of the Amtrak Reform and Accountability Act of 1997 to achieve financial self-sustainability by Dec. 2, 2002.

		Amtrak's response was to ask for $1.2 billion dollars in federal grants for the 2003 fiscal year, and to cut back drastically on expenses this year.

	Dan Chazin's Trip on Amtrak's Keystone Service
		An open meeting of the Amtrak Reform Board is being held today in a hotel in Philadelphia, and when I received an announcement of the meeting from NARP, I decided that it would be interesting to attend this meeting.
		Since an Amtrak ticket is valid for free passage on SEPTA trains to Center City Philadelphia, I went up to the "regional rail" upper level of the station, where the SEPTA commuter trains stop.
		Also, at the conclusion of the meeting, I was approached by Lynn Bowersox, Amtrak's Senior Director of Communications for the Northeast Corridor, who told me that she was a close friend of Karen, to whom my cousin Barry was recently engaged.
