Sure it would, just as any other service provided for by your condo/HOA fees or what have you. BTW I think having a HOA do anything beyond landscaping is probably more of a headache than it's worth, but still... I think the possib

You use `an` in front of an acronym when the first letter of it has a vowel _sound_, even if the letter itself is not a vowel. Example: "A member of parliament talked to me." "An MP talked to me." Here when pronouncing t

I agree, DC is fantastic, but only if you're older than 30 and not in politics. I mean, it's great for the obverse, but for different reasons. Also, the best deli I've ever been to is in Georgetown[0]! 0. https://g

I wonder if that makes it the best time for software engineers to form a union? I think the conventional wisdom is that unions are formed to benefit those without power otherwise, but would it make sense to unionize to maximize an already o
