NEW YORK Parts of New York City's crippled subway system will begin operating again with partial service Thursday, with fleets of buses filling in the gaps knocked out by severe flooding, officials said. With some subway tunnels and stations still filled with water, and power still turned off in downtown Manhattan, big holes will remain in the nation's largest public transit system even after trains start rolling. There will be no subway service south of 48th Street, an area that includes the city's financial district and many tourist sites, MTA Chairman Joseph Lhota announced, according to CBS New York. But the restarting of many parts of the system was sure to breathe life back into a paralyzed city, and allow millions of people to finally get to their jobs, or to school, for the first time since the system shut down Sunday.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
