[DMCForum] Re: Traffic.

["Josh Porter" <joshp1986@xxxxxxxxx>]

I heard that the reason it is so hard for outsiders to navigate 
through DC is the people that planned out the streets did that on 
purpose. So that people going after the president would have a 
difficult time getting to the white house. I don't know if that is 
true but makes sense to me.

Houston is another hard town for me to get through. Compared to where 
I live they have no signage. I went down to Johnson space center 
before the open house, I got lost going down there and coming back.
