I once rode Greyhound from Salt Lake to Detroit with steve, who had an interesting tactic to keep the seat next to him open.

That trip was hellacious and surreal. I think I lost a bit of my humanity on it.

The part about the sleep deprivation is true. It's brutal having to get out of the bus at 3AM, and wait in a cold dirty station, on plastic seats, under flickering fluorescent lighting, in the middle of nowhere.

The article is spot-on.

I.... I.... I have no words to better describe the trip than yours. Hellacious and surreal indeed.
