80 <h2>Airport Directions</h2>
82 <p>A taxi from SeaTac airport to <strong>Extraordinary Least
83 Squares</strong> should cost about $50 and take about 30
84 minutes — but might take <em>much</em> more with
85 traffic. Mass transit requires one transfer, costs $2.75,
86 and take about an hour.</p>
88 <h3>Mass Transit Directions</h3>
90 <p>At SeaTac airport, follow signs to ground transportation
92 the <a href="http://www.soundtransit.org/rider-guide/link-light-rail">LINK
93 light rail</a> which is located at the far left of the main
94 terminal on the check-in level. At the light rail station,
96 and <a href="http://www.orcacard.com">ORCA cards</a> which
97 are reusable on all Seattle-area mass transit. You can also
98 buy a single-use paper ticket. If you buy an ORCA card, you
99 will need to tap it on a yellow terminal both before you
100 enter, and after you exit the train. The tapping areas are
103 <p>Take the LINK train until the <strong>University
104 Street</strong> station which take 36 minutes and stop at 11
105 stops. At University Street, you will need to change to a bus to
108 <p>The LINK station is underground and the buses to Fremont
109 travel on the street above. In the station, walk in the
110 direction of the train and go up the stairs to the north
111 platform. Follow signs for an exit onto 3<sup>rd</sup>
112 Avenue and University which should be to the left if you are
113 facing the direction of the train Avenue. You should exit
114 onto the east side of 3<sup>rd</sup> Avenue, walk north
115 (again, the same direction of the train)
116 to <strong>3<sup>rd</sup> Avenue and Union Street</strong>
117 (one block up) and look for a large bus stop with several
118 shelters with the following buses numbers written on
119 it: <strong>40, 26, 28</strong>. These buses all come down
120 3<sup>rd</sup> Avenue frequently and should arrive within
121 10-15 minutes at almost any time except between midnight and
122 5:00am. You can install the free software phone application
124 for <a href="http://pugetsound.onebusaway.org/">OneBusAway</a>
125 for real-time data on bus arrivals.</p>
127 <p>Take any <strong>40, 26, or 28</strong> bus <strong>North
128 to Fremont</strong>. Tapping your ORCA card at bus entrance
129 will register a "transfer" from the LINK and you will not be
130 charged for the bus. Stay on the bus for about 20 minutes to
131 the stop at <strong>FREMONT AVE and N 34TH ST</strong> which
132 will be displayed on a digital display on the ceiling at the
133 front of the bus.</p>
135 <p>Take a right after immediately exiting the bus and take a
136 left when you come to the intersection (Fremont Ave &
137 34<sup>th</sup>). Walk down 34<sup>th</sup> (you should pass
138 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for_the_Interurban">this
139 sculpture of people waiting, usually dressed up</a>, on the
140 other side of the street) as you walk toward, and then under, the
141 enormous "Aurora" bridge and across Troll
142 Avenue. <strong>Extraordinary Least Squares</strong> is in a
