DNC Traffic?

Well, all that worry was for naught, the drive into Boston every day has been a breeze. Matter of fact, their scare tactics worked too well, there is no one in the city. I have been told business is down 50%. If you are near Boston, I am told you can find great seats at any of the good restaurants around town.

My commute is a breeze.  The only problem is the majority of my clients have closed for the week.  The business owners I've spoken to report losses of over 75%.  The Herald had a good piece on it yesterday.  The local economy got smashed.  

Except for the taxis.
