trinityvixenFor those geeks out there (basically everyone who reads my lj), you know the Answer. The Answer is 42. The proof that this is so is as follows:
$20 buys you 12 rides on the subway in NYC if you buy in $20 increments (a 20% bonus).
That's $1+2/3 per trip on a regular metrocard.
An Unlimited Metrocard costs $70.
The minimum number of trips necessary to match the value of a pay-as-you-go metrocard: 42!!!!!!
