How long should you leave a car running?

A: Take the train! But really, if you are stopped for one minute, is that long enough that it's better to turn the car off?

Apparently it's been a really long time since engines were made in such a way that starting them took a lot of fuel. Now they don't. The dividing line is at about 10 seconds. That's what they say in Slate.
