That Subway Voice - NYTimes.com Re "Subway Announcements, as Imagined by (Clearly Disenchanted) Riders" (City Room, Feb. 24): I'm glad that subway announcements, on the platform and in the cars, are more intelligible than in the past. But can we now work on having fewer of them? If the train stops between stations, I want to know for how long, and possibly why. But it seems that on my 45-minute commute home from work each night (when I just want to tune out or read), I am reminded that courtesy begins with me, that pregnant and disabled people would love my seat, and that my backpack might be subject to a random search - over and over again.
