    yay for commuters! best site i've seen in ages...
    http://www.ihatethelirr.com

    for those of you who never had to suffer the 1-2 hour NYC commute to get
    to work bless your cotton socks and as they say here in NZ "get hard!"

    commuting is a blessing in diguise. when else do you get to see the leaves
    in the fall, get time to just "think" and drink your coffee, listen to
    YOUR music (as opposed to your kids, hubbies, kids at school etc) and let
    your hair dry at the same time!

    NZ is nice... but i sure miss CT what a beautiful part of the states.
    drive on mark!
