Fake facts about DDOTFun things happen on Twitter. John Lisle, the DDOT staff person who runs their account, is moving to DC Water and giving up @DDOTDC. Since he’s leaving, he let loose with some of the agency’s closely guarded secrets yesterday. They’re copied here, for those of you who missed them on Twitter.
- Bikeshare was the brainchild of Al Gore. He sold it for $500M.
- “DC Streetcar” is really just a model we keep around the office pic.twitter.com/I1ZmiU2f
- There is a Metro station in Georgetown but it’s VIP only.
- We threw out the L’Enfant Plan when we stopped eating French Fries.
- We have no idea who designed the Dave Thomas Circle (but it smells so good!)
- We have a fleet of red convertible Solaras our employees can use anytime they want to hit the open road: t.co/0fg1bqPt
- There is 1 master switch for the streetlights and 1 for the traffic signals, but we don’t know which is which.
- We don’t have a clue what our logo means, but we like it.
- There is no @DDOTDC. This has all been a hoax.
