In response to your updated question, I think the best way would be to change the experience of people who ride.<p>- Install TVs with captions and an FM channel so I can listen to the news on my 30 minute commute.<p>- Take out chairs from a few of the cars and make them standing room only so that during rush out you aren't crammed in like sardines.<p>- Make the first and last cars dark so that in early morning and your way back from work you can sleep if you'd like.<p>- Add WiFi so I can work my entire trip in, just came to mind.<p>These are things I'd love to see on the metro cause right now I feel like I lose 30 minutes a day just sitting there and reading.
