One last comment from me about NYTimes.com's interactive NYC transit strike map:

With the strike winding down, we probably won't see desperation and nasty posts from the public trashing the transit workers or the MTA, as might have happened if the strike went on into a second week or beyond. So far, the posts have been pretty much of the "I love this city and I loved walking to work this morning, seeing the beautiful houses/brownstones/buildings that I never noticed before" ilk. Good stuff. (And let me reiterate: great coverage.)

But the true New Yorkers -- I grew up there (albeit in the suburbs), so I'm allowed to say this -- would have started getting nasty, trashy, testy, and worse in the second week. Then the graphic mash-up editor really would have been busy!
