         <description><![CDATA[<p>Public transit is movable public space that gives us a chance to see one another. Proximity to other “strangers” is a benefit. When we witness strangers even just by brief observation it can build our empathy.  Sometimes we might see the same people during our commute and form silent community with them. It can be acknowledged through a head nod, smile, or eventual  “good morning.” </p>]]></description>
