Okay, not to be a nitpick, but:
I took a No.65-Grand bus and the heat was on. From my "Going Public" experience, I realize that the operator cannot adjust bus temperature, but great googly moogly, I nearly overheated. Has anyone else suffered from hot-bus syndrome today? It was such a glorious and unseasonably warm day, so I understand if the agency wasn't exactly prepared, but man!!!
On another note: What was going on during your commute today?
Another other note: Stay tuned, I'm going to start putting up lost-and-found items tomorrow so we can get some reunions going.

I haven't ridden the bus recently, but gosh darn near fainted plum away on the Red Line the other morning. Talk about gasping for air when coming up out of the tunnel at Jackson...

Yeah, I have experienced this on many buses in Chicago. It's so bad at times, I can hardly breathe. I'd appreciate it if I could open one of the windows to at least vent the bus.

Yeah I have experienced this on many CTA buses but none like today on the 47-47th Street bus it was sooo hot even with all the windows open (those that could) it still felt like a saunna! CTA really needs to find a fix for that.

OMG...Happens to me all of the time! Sometimes it's annoying, other times it's downright scary. I'm always scared that I'm going to faint, especially with all the layers and winter gear on!
