Shame on CT.  The scene on Friday afternoon&#039;s &quot;express&quot; train to Stamford included: a fire in one car, smoke throughout the train, lack of any air-conditioning in half of the cars, 90 degree temperatures in the &quot;cooled&quot; cars, an infant that needed to be evacuated due to the heat, and a 30 minute delay only a few hundred yards from the platform in Stamford.

I was FAR more uncomfortable and distressed during this travel in the state of CT than at any point during a recent 6 week trip to Sierra Leone (the 10th least developed nation in the world per the United Nations).  Maybe the people of CT should stop shouting to the world about their high average income and start cleaning up the mess at home.
