You were complaining about how down you felt when you got on the bus after the strike was over and people were withdrawn. It may be that your fellow riders were adding up the cost of taxis to and from work, the doctor's office, the grocery store, the library, etc. You know, what we had to do during the six weeks that the union (I'm not for the public; I'm for my drivers) held us hostage. Just sayin. —Glum Transit Rider
