[extropy-chat] Suitcase nukes (was: let's say)

[Brian Lee]

The work in the city, live in the country is an excellent argument for 
public transportation like subways and trains. It's far more efficient use 
of one's time to take a train in every morning and work (or sleep) for an 
hour than to drive in.

I lived in CT and commuted into new york on a train and my day would have 
been much less productive had I been forced to drive in.
