Seems the yups and other thugs like traffic now because on their way to the 
bloody hamptons they can get more work done on their on-board computers, 
cell phones, multiple CD changers, etc. according to an article in the NY 
Times a few days ago. The tone of the article did not question the absolute 
evilness of what these people do.  It's really an extension of what the 
characters in JR and A Frolic do--Gaddis is laughing somewhere.
