Putting Some 'Mute' in Your 'Commute': 

NJ TRANSIT Executive Director James Weinstein today announced plans to conduct a 90-day pilot program to test the feasibility of offering "Quiet Commute" cars on NJ TRANSIT trains.

"Customers have asked us to offer a Quiet Commute option in an effort to balance the needs of people who want to stay connected while aboard our trains with those who want to relax or work in a quiet atmosphere," said Weinstein.  "We're going to offer this amenity as a pilot program and rely on customer feedback to determine whether to make Quiet Commute a permanent NJ TRANSIT amenity." 

Beginning September 7, Quiet Commute cars will be offered weekdays on the first and last cars of Northeast Corridor express trains in the "3900-series" - which operate to and from the outer-zone stations of Trenton, Hamilton and Princeton Junction.

This is fantastic news.  As my friend Martin has aptly stated, the worst part of NJ TRANSIT is the people.  Perhaps the second worst part is the headline of this press release.  It is an egregious example of "unnecessary" quotation marks.  I could maybe get behind "mute" (it's "cute"), but "commute"?  What, are they implying I'm doing this for fun?
