@SanjayNadaraja @justinskycak Exactly! Univ of Maryland has a wind tunnel and a ….. nuclear reactor! Try that at home! (Actually don’t)

@Rabadash2 i suspect it’s politics more than history but Huntsville, Alabama is where we put the German rocket scientists after WW2.

@fabucat @MatthewSitman Oh my! I saw him at Merriweather in 1989 for $17.50. He did “Should i stay or should i go” as an encore. Epic.

You see so much of this: ignorance plus confidence.

@MargRev Capital Bikeshare racked up over 725,000 trips in October, its sixth straight record month. That indicates a measure of success.

@HousingSpock True! I’m chief gardener for my local community gardens and 10-20% of gardeners drop out every year. The plots are 10’x20’.

@allafarce In their (partial) defense, payroll systems for unionized employees are harder due to unique clauses that require customizing software. Customizations drive up cost and drive down quality.

@beyonddc Our Lady of Perpetual Petroleum will always be there. Saint Sunoco looks over that site.

@MoCoMikeE @beyonddc I figure many older people need to hold on to their largest asset to make it through retirement. We should probably make housing a little less attractive as investment.

@ggwash Amazing stat that 45% of rides are on electric bikes! They are probably no more than 15% of all bikes available. And they cost extra!

@beyonddc This is good information. I did not know even though I’m from here. Metro museum? Cool! And, based on the Metro pop up shop selling out two weeks early, Metro retail would do well.

It would be funny if Virginia gave a bunch of money to sports teams to lure them to Potomac Yards …. and then WMATA shuts down the Potomac Yards metro due to lack of funding.

[Greater Greater Washington @ggwash]

BREAKFAST LINKS 12/12/2023: WMATA budget shortfall would mean 67 bus routes cut, 2,300 layoffs, 10 shuttered Metro stations. Group of Virginia lawmakers approve plan to lure Capitals, Wizards. Plan announced for Baltimore vacant properties: https://t.co/QzUqtxXiYT

@justindotnet You’re half right - closed to cars up to Washington!

@BikeGillian @NPSGWMP Lots of inline skaters today too. Path is too narrow for some of them to stay to the right. I saw a cyclist with a baby trailer have to go in the grass to get by.
