Overheard in DC

Posted by Paul

This morning, on the metro from Arlington, VA into DC, a man's voice came over the PA system:

Next stop, Foggy Bottom, George Washington University. This is the first stop in the District of Columbus.
I have heard the same thing at least twice before, and have heard testimony that it is a regular phenomenon.

UPDATE: A Google search seems to reveal that the DC d.m.v. has made the same booboo.

Having lived in the D.C. for 5 years (and having graduated from GWU), I can attest to this being true. They screw it up all the time! Hilarious!

Great blog, btw!
