No Ma? No Más!

Gridskipper, the "Urban Travel Guide," hates on the name NoMa, pointing out that it's the name of a horrible disease, an acronym for a museum, and way worse than "Swampoodle." Duh!

I gotta say, I think "Atlas District" is more of a threat, aesthetically.

if the washington times can have a policy about using certain terms at certain times, how about the citypaper be the first to go on the record saying that they'll use "swampoodle" when referring to that area?

how about it?
