DC is layed out just like Paris and makes a lot of sense to me.  I used to 
be a bike messenger there ~ during the time of the airline crash in the 
Potomac and a swearing in.  I got pretty good with a chain...it must be the 
Saxon in me!  Lived in Boston too.  Well actually Cambridge.  Did drive 
though used the public or walked.  Had a living making smorgasborg lunch in 
a Irish pub there.  That was a hundred years back.
