I just wanted to note that in that (historic!) day, when the first
Herzelinux lecture was given, July 17, 2008 (Thursady) , there were no
trains at all during all day due to maintainence railway work (all
lines from Tel Aviv to Nahariya). This probably contributed to the
fact thay there were
traffic jams, etc (though it is hard to estimate in numbers).  I
remember this "no-trains" day without any doubt because I had to skip
the idea of taking a train that day.
