Ye of little faith may just win
Bad news for those of you who bet on an early completion date for the Metro escalator completion pool -- they changed the sign. Originally, it said the escalator would be ready on May 10, then it was updated to May 15. Now it just says May, 2004.
To make matters worse, a WMATA employee greeted commuters at the entry/exit gates with a warm "good morning." Why does that make me think we're really in for it?

The Metro guy was creepy - even though the faregate he was standing next to had the shortest line, I used a different one, since I didn't know if I was going to be stopped/searched/surveyed, or something else. Doesn't Metro have anything better to do with their employees than have one standing in an orange vest supervising a turnstile rather than just piling on another fare increase?
