Say you're normally an afternoon subway commuter, but you're dying to watch the eclipse today. There's a solution. Take the bus. 

Other things you can do on the bus: Make friends, get stuck in traffic, send emails, and maybe soak up a little more vitamin D than you could underground. 

This week, we're focusing on the agony and ecstasy of being a bus commuter. So tell us: If you commute by bus, what do you want train riders—and the people in charge of your bus line—to know about your experience? Tweet using #WeTheCommuters, and join our Facebook group.
