Surely it must be strange to hear one’s own voice ordering oneself on and off the train, but Miller doesn’t think it will be much of a problem for her.
"Can I just say that I’m really glad that I don’t ride the train often enough to make it strange?" Miller says. "It’ll be fun. I can echo myself and freak people out. Maybe I can make an announcement and have them do things that wouldn’t normally happen on a train." Miller’s voice dips to the authoritarian sound of Metro as she suggests a possibility: "Everybody hold your breath."
