I left my <a href=\"http:\/\/subarusvx.com\">car<\/a> at home today!  I hopped on a bus around the corner from our apartment, for a two minute ride where I crossed the street to catch a second bus (free transfer) to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mbta.com\">T<\/a> for a subway ride to the next stop where I caught the business council shuttle right to work!  The shuttle was the longest part of the ride, clocking in at 30 minutes.  I caught the first bus at 7:41 this morning.  I was at work by  8:45.  I grant you, it takes longer.  However, had I caught the shuttle before that (catching the first bus at 7:20 or so instead), I would have had a shuttle ride right to the door of the building where I work.  Today involved a ten minute walk.  If I can time that alternative one correctly, then it should take about as long as it did when I drove through all the traffic in Somerville and Cambridge, but with a much reduced environmental cost.<\/p>\n<p>Digging it so far.
