em> 42nd Street to pick up the train over to Flushing to see the Mets could easily be over 100 degrees, and people pack into that train like sardines.

Please, you are freaking me out.

Standing capacity in a typical subway car is nominally 202, but they get about 250 in at 5:00 PM on the day of a ballgame. If it makes you feel any better, only about 3 or 4 people per hundred have serious communicable diseases, although the mental cases making religious/political/racist rants that ride all the way over to Citi Field seem to have taken a major upswing with the new mayor.

Civilization.

Oh, and believe me, the crowd and the heat is WAY BETTER than what you run into when for some reason you find yourself almost alone on the train through Queens at 4:00 AM.

Take the , and watch out for this guy (I understand he bites):
