I have a 50 mile commute to downtown Chicago. It can easily run 2+ hours each way using at least one mode of public transportation (it depends if I want to walk 1.5 miles from the train station). I think it's the Webalo in me that makes me overpack my bag, just in case...

Multitool
3" folding knife
AAA Maglight with glass breaker cap
32oz Nalgene water bottle
16oz coffee thermos
1oz bottle of hand sanitizer
compact umbrella
waterproof sack
hand warmers
paracord
travel pack of Kleenex
napkins
prescription sunglasses
eyeglass cleaner & cloth
small towel
micro USB charger
phone battery
spare headphones
vitamins
Excedrin
bag of almonds
Altoids
extra train/bus passes & schedules
American Express Card
$60 cash
bottle opener strapped to the outside of the backpack (easy access for beer)

This is all in addition to the laptop and other supplies I actually need for my job. I've been stuck on the train for hours due to bad weather & accidents, and even stranded downtown due to a labor strike. It's made me a bit paranoid about getting caught unprepared.
