[TriLUG] OT: your RTP commute? my office is relocating to RTP

[Greg Brown]

I come into Durham every day by way of I85 and I rarely have a slow-down or
problem.  A few parallel back roads to I85 exist in case of complete
disaster on the interstate but, for the most part, my commutes are
uneventful and quick.

I won't go back to I40.
