It seems that no news means good news as I haven’t written a blog entry here in over a month. The one train delay that I encountered was minor, but it came at a bad time. The New Jersey Chemistry Olympics at NJIT was last Thursday May 19. The organizers asked everyone to come in by 8 AM. With that thought in mind I woke up 20 minutes early to guard against possible train delays. The “Murphy’s Law of transit delays” happened as a boarded the 7:27 from NYP to Newark. Door problems delayed the departure for 20 minutes. I arrived at 8:20.
