Just reported on local TV. According to current estimates of the number of
people who may end up on the mall, and the number of porta-potties on the
mall, there will be one porta-potty for every 6,000 people.

I don't think they'll be selling beer on the mall.

Bring an empty plastic bottle. Carry it in your hand, 'cause backpacks and
large purses won't be allowed.

Gee, and I was going to be on the lookout for you and for Herring...you
in the crowd and Herring in the ambulance, on his way to the hospital
after suffering a stroke. :)

Bathroom anxiety certainly is a concern, but fortunately, several unions
within a couple of blocks of the Capitol are having an open house
and...more important...access to bathrooms... :)

Once that word gets out I'll bet the open house closes.

Well, you probably will need a union ID. That's what the unions do
during legislative meetings...you can't get in without some sort of
appropriate ID...but with two million souls on the mall, it could easily
get out of hand! :)

Being the 56,723rd person to climb into a porti-potty on the mall is a
scary thought.

Getting out of town is going to be a bitch, too. The only good way is to
wait for the crowds to thin out a bit and then head for a metro station
not well known to the touristas.

Nah, I've never been to an inauguration yet, and really dont' see any
reason to attend this one either, fighting crowds and traffic isn't'
my thing. especially when it's going to be on about every TV network
for weeks to come.

I've lived in the DC area, Fairfax County, Virginia or Montgomery
County, Maryland since July of 1971. I've been to the Mall once for 4th
of July fireworks and never for an inauguration. The one time I went for
fireworks it was on my motorcycle, easy in, easy around and easy out.
It's just too damn cold to go for an inauguration.
