[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did you use the word "dc" in your subject line?

The article talks about new construction in oakton, McLean, Rockville, Reston, Howard county, silver spring, and my perennial favorite, LOUDON effing county.

DC is generally understood to be a metropolitan area. Do you not comprehend that?[/quote]

NP here, no it is not.  Have you only recently moved here?  DC = District of Columbia.[/quote]

Whoopee.  DC is two letters, "Washington-area" is 14.  Get a life.[/quote]

No, you get a CLUE.  DC is the District of Columbia.  If you are regularly using it to suggest the greater Washington area you are confusing a lot of people and you are wrong.  Those of us who live in DC think it's crazy and ridiculous when people like you suggest that Reston or McLean is "DC".  It is blatantly not and you are 100 percent WRONG.  It's like living in New Jersey and calling it Manhattan.[/quote]

Don't worry.  I'm not the poster who started the thread.  Personally, I wouldn't want anyone to think I lived in DC.  I just think you're making way too big a deal over this.

BTW, comparing DC to Manhattan is the epitome of misguided arrogance.  NYC is a world-class city.  DC is a social and cultural backwater that's overshadowed in jobs, population and wealth by the surrounding areas. [/quote]
