Height of Efficiency

My carpool this morning was so amazingly efficient that I got here in about 35 minutes. The roads were completely clear, the West Side Highway was like a ghost town, and we sped all the way through. We did see a checkpoint at 96th street (and the resulting traffic), so if anybody thinks that they can get in with their 3 favorite blow-up dolls, you better come up with a plan B.

My pragmatic ride-share leader optimized our route so well, that the most traffic we encountered was that one block on 120th street, between Broadway and Amsterdam, as we tried to pull in to the Engineering School garage. This sort of sensible organization just warms my heart.
