Subsidized by the states of Oregon and Washington, the nine-hour trip costs only $44 for coach, and you can buy segments (Portland to Seattle costs $21).

Reinert remained blissfully unaware until January 1999 that he was on his way to war. That's when he first heard about the proposed tariffs. "I was at a Portland [Ore.] gift show...and I happened to read this little blurb in TIME about bath products. I thought it was a joke." He investigated. "It was no joke.
