Subject: RE: BS: 'Math' or 'Maths'
A few years ago, I was on the Metroliner from NYC to Philadelphia and was seated next to folks who were travelling to Philadelphia from Boston. One gentleman asked me if I could tell him how to get to Macket Street once they get to the station. I told him that I had never heard of Macket Street. He said that he was told that Macket Street was one of the main streets in the city. I told him I was sorry, but I honestly had no idea where Macket Street was. He said that he thought City Hall was located at Broad and Macket. Oh, you mean Market Street...we all had a good laugh at that.
