Subject: Re: ways of dealing with names



When a by-pass was completed on the east side of Columbia, Missouri

and Hwy Dept personnel put up signs, some (perhaps identifiable, but I'm not

gonna try) 'they' decided that 'Broadway' was not an appropriate way to

refer to a broad way into town, so the proud sign at the top of the

exit ramp announces "Broadway Street." (Here a boulevard usually has a

median, so broad ways aren't necessarily boulevards.)  DMLance
