I've worked there before - up on Totten Pond Road.  I always left the
house at 5:30 (from Warwick, RI) - so that I could leave the office at
2:30.  It's the only way to do it.  I played the same game in California
- commuting from Livermore to Menlo Park.  It sucks.

I'm trying like hell to find a job in RI, but we'll see...
