I hope you were listening to NPR when you drove to work.
There was one woman who called in to say--honest to god, but paraphrased--"I'm an Upper-East-Sider lost on the Upper-West Side. I had to call my husband to pick me up in his truck because I was so confused."
*Blink*
People were calling in to talk about how helpless they were *walking* today. I'm sorry. Yes, traffic was bad. Get out and walk. Buy a map at a bodega. Learn your freaking city. Sheesh.
People who didn't know how to walk on the surface were criticizing the MTA for not being able to move them. Certainly, this would be an issue if there were a catastrophic event. Not knowing how to walk your own ass is no reason to put the blame solely at the feet of the MTA.
