I saw some woman get conked once in Montreal on St. Catherine. Knocked out cold, paramedics, the works.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The strike is definitely actually over for real now: [link]

WOOHOO!
Yeah, the estimates for getting service running again have been 12-24 hours, so we won't be riding until morning rush hour at the earliest. (Of course, that's for trains -- I haven't seen anything about how long it'll take to get the buses running again.)

This was posted to the NYers LJ community, but I couldn't help but share it here.
A Sense of Fashion Is Lost in Transit:
THE cost of a transit strike to department stores and designer boutiques in New York during the week before Christmas and Hanukkah will undoubtedly be staggering. The cost to the greater cause of fashion could be even worse.
It was, after all, the transit strike in 1980 that led millions of New Yorkers to walk to work wearing business suits with running shoes, usually white. It was a look born of practicality, but one that commuters refused to cede when that strike ended, as if their long-term comfort was another chip on the union's bargaining table. Thus was born one of the worst fashion trends ever.

Message on the MTA's web site:
The TWU has recommended its members return to work. While we will work diligently to resume normal service levels, it will take anywhere from 10-18 hours to do so.
