I take the bus from the East Bay back in to SF, saw all the coverage, freaked out because of how horrible the bridge can be under the best of circumstances, left work 30 minutes early and... ...got to SF exactly when the bus was scheduled to arrive. Kinda anti-climatic when one is expecting commuter armageddon.
