    As a bald headline, it doesn't surprise me. But there's commuting and
    there's commuting.

    Driving three miles to work into a company car-park in suburban Texas is
    one thing.

    Having to ride a train from Westchester to Manhattan Grand Central (or
    Southend to London's Liverpool Street Station) five days a week (and
    that after driving to a railway station car-park and paying through the
    nose to park) is *quite another*.
