	New York Subway
		At the outset of this era, New York County (Manhattan Island and part of the Bronx), Kings County (including the Cities of Brooklyn and Williamsburg) and Queens County were separate political entities.
		In 1898, New York, Kings and Richmond Counties, and parts of Queens and Westchester Counties and their constituent cities, towns, villages and hamlets were consolidated into the City of Greater New York.
		The three systems were unified and then operated by the City of New York through its Board of Transportation in 1940, which was succeeded in 1953 by the New York City Transit Authority, a state agency incorporated for the benefit of the city, now known to the public as MTA New York City Transit.

	Cleanliness in New York City Subway Cars
		A New York City Transit spokesman said in April that the authority believed it was "doing a pretty effective job;" in November, MTA Chairman E. Virgil Conway told reporters that the subways were cleaner than years past in spite of internal MTA data to the contrary.
		New York City Transit's subway car cleaning manual states that "each railcar in the New York City Transit subway fleet is to be kept continously clean..." When we first surveyed subway car cleanliness in the 3rd Quarter 1997, we wanted to see whether that standard was being met.
		We found that 68% of the subway cars we surveyed were dirty--dirty not because of litter but because New York City Transit had failed to mop and clean the trains.

	Disorient Express :: MTA Service Advisories by RSS
		New York City's Subway system can be mystifying at times, especially when it seems like certain trains like to suddenly stop running, go a different route or just start skipping stops for no apparent reason.
		So after a lot of frustration about never knowing which lines were going to be out when, I figured the only thing to do was to cobble together a system to build RSS and TXT feeds of subway outages.
		With some new code under the hood and a mean spirit spurred by getting screwed by the E/V train last weekend, the site and its feeds are now back and kicking.
