• Going to Worldcon? Avoid riding Metro

    From Keith F. Lynch@21:1/5 to All on Wed Nov 24 02:58:35 2021
    Today I read the least susprising headline I've ever seen: "Metro
    will keep lower service levels through end of the year." So if you're
    going to the DC Worldcon next month, unless you're fond of standing
    for long periods in crowds of unvaccinated people without masks in
    poorly ventilated spaces, I'd suggest you find a different way to get
    to and from the convention.

    In other Worldcon news, the JWST launch will no longer be during the convention, having slipped to at least the 22nd. (The DART launch is
    scheduled for late tonight, 0621 UTC.)
