Um, no.
The FIRST reference above is an official REVENUE RULING that discusses who can transportation expenses to and from your home. Of the three allowable circumstances, 2 deal with a "temporary" work location and the 3rd deals with the "Principle Place of Business". The link to the Home Office Publication was to point out what the "Principal Place of Business" means.
A link to a blog on some random website does not take priority over an official IRS Revenue Ruling.
