Metro -- One Goof & One Yay

A new sign in the Crystal City Metro platform area indicates that Federal Center is the place to move from one line to another. Oops! Whoever laid down the long strip of the lines didn't align the dots with the slanted stops.

I stood next to a man who commented on this error in the tone that many around here do -- complaining about the Metro in general, in the same way people complain about cable service or phone rates. But I'm an unabashed fan of Metro. Problems occur, of course, but isn't that inevitable?

Check out the photo below. That's a freshly painted floor. Both elevators in the Waterfront station received the refreshing coat. Nice!
