A feel-good story about the on-board holiday party organized by commuters on the Amtrak Hiawatha. (Sent to me by a friend and Milwaukee native.) Excerpt: "'You spend three hours a day with these people, so you get to know them. They become friends and family, both on and off the train,' says Todd Allen, a resident of West Allis who has worked in Chicago for 30 years." I especially liked the guy who says he'll keep riding the train occasionally even after he retires soon. For the parties.
Seriously, it's a paean to the value of community, which you sure don't get fumin' on the freeway in your own personal little metal pod.
