Here comes the plane...

I live in Elizabeth which is just south of Newark so everyday, as I stand on the raised platform waiting for my train to work, I can watch the planes taking off from Newark Liberty International Airport.  It's funny watching planes take off all the time like that.  A mixture of technological awe, curiosity at the lifestyle of people who fly often, scientific interest [and I'm reminded of MythBusters], and finally the folly of society.
 
The rest of my commute is usually much less complicated.

Yeah, but what EXACTLY does EWR stand for?

I think it stands for "EW. Railroads."
