I can't remember the last time I rode the subway before midnight, and
I ride it a lot!!!  I'm sure glad I don't live in the District of
Columbia.  If the subways here closed at midnight, I'd probably have a
car by now, against my will (much like San Francisco where the
majority of the people had monthly transit passes *and* properly
registered automobiles semi-conveniently parked within a dozen or so
blocks of their house (parking is often tighter there than in NYC)).
