Give nerds their own PRIVATE TRAIN CARRIAGES, say boffins

Bah!

The Long Island Rail Road has instigated a Quiet Car policy in which one car is set aside for getting away from Foghorn Leghorns on Phones.

Of course, this being the Long Island Rail Road, who are to ideas as soup is to concrete, there are a few "gotchas".

a) The Quiet Car is always the west most car in the train, which means in the morning the one in which every rail crossing is signaled by blowing a rack of airhorns located *under* the said car. Nothing says peace and quiet like FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRN! every three minutes.

2) Compliance is voluntary. By doing this the Long Island Rail Road has inadvertently invented the world's most powerful Git Attractant.
