Comrade, welcome to Metrocenter
Really, New York Times? Really?
Mr. Kram lives in Virginia, he said, and the bus leaves him off in Washington near Metrocenter, the subway hub with a choice of lines. The rail station in Washington, he explained, only has the connection to the red line.
Fortysecondstreettimessquare, I'm watching you.

Eh-hem, NYTimes, where are your editors? A quick trip to wmata.com confirms that 'Metrocenter' should actually be two words and is home to not one, not two, but THREE colorful lines!

Yes, but the bus still got me back and forth for less than $40, no traffic, no parking and a STRONG wi-fi signal!

Zmonica, I have to apologize and stick up for the Times there. What I failed to excerpt was a previous reference to Union Station, apparently reference here. But the whole graf obviously doesn't read great.
With Bolt Bus, Jess, I can only imagine what Communist underpinnings are keeping that proletariat labor experiment going.

I did get to lead everyone in song and wear a special yellow sash…

I stand corrected and offer an olive branch to the Times editors. :)

The Times ALSO lacks a style for the word "accoutrements," spelling it both that way AND "accouterments." Yeah, it bugs me. So what?
p.s. Hi from Korea!!

Greetings to Korea. Maybe the paper should just stop using the word altogether. It makes you were there a Flickrvision/Twittervision of people saying ridiculous words, all geocoded and mapped up.
