- I see a peak when 9-5'ers get in in the morning, and another peak when
- students get out of class. And the fact that students have no

- they need first thing in the morning, leading to a large spike at the
- time work starts, and not much elsewhere (except engineers, who also
- don't have any discernible daily cycle :-).
