I only rode the City bus to Newark for law school

for the first semester since the limited parking available did not allow first semester students to park "on campus," such as it was in 1982. My "favorite" part was driving through the parts of Newark that had burned in 1967 and had yet to be repaired, looking very much like the war zone that it had been. I actually remember seeing the smoke from the fires in 1967 in front of the family business one town over.
It was always great to dress warm in the winter to stand at the bus stop, only to swelter on the over-heated bus, and drawing complaints from other riders when I opened the window to breath. No more interesting interaction to report.
