 We asked the neighbors if we could block the road before we did it. We had the rack out for a couple of hours. They are getting used to us doing odd things during build season. - wendymom [more] |

NYC Transit strike is on!
Effective almost exactly 3.5 hours ago, the NYC Transit Workers went on a complete strike.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051220/...transit_strike What this means for the estimated 7 million commuters is no Subway, Bus and even limited personal restrictions for driving. 4 or more passengers in vehicles only are allowed in some places from 5am to 11am. Already I have seen reports of people walking an extra 20 blocks at least in this miserable cold we are experiencing in the Northeast as usual this time of year. I hope this issue can be resolved soon. If not, I hope this maybe raises awareness for alternative (personal) transportations. Can you say Segway? Even though I'm sure this strike will not last a very long time, for the time it does last, it will be a huge strain on an ever growing city such as NYC. Thoughts? Comments? Personal Experiences with the strike??
