Train Commuters

There are two types of Train Commuters.  One type of Train Commuter is the Independent Thinker.  He or she spends his or her time on the train reading the newspaper, drinking coffee, and working on a laptop.  The other type of Train Commuter is the Group Thinker.  He or she spends his or her time on the train talking to other Group Thinkers, trying to figure how they are going to think about issues.  The issues are usually unimportant, such as discussing their minor health problems or gossiping about other people's lives.  If something happens either on the train, in someone else's life, or even out in the Great Big World, the Group Thinkers all come up with the same deduction.  That deduction is seldom based on logical information.  When speaking with a Train Commuter Group Thinker outside of the Commuter Circle, the Group Thinker will often times begin a sentence with,"a woman on the train said..." or "some women on the train ..."  Hmmm... the Group Thinkers often times work for the Independent Thinkers.  Wonder why?
