Ok....read the comments and looks like the owner and others are taking the guy to the mat for posting the article WITHOUT labeling it as satire anywhere. That they realize people take the site seriously and so should the author.
Frankly it was a nasty thing to do especially in light of the state of things in Washington. Makes me wonder if the author did this purposely and deliberately as a mole there.
I honestly think they should remove it. Jim would. Or label it clearly.
The I95 corridor is pretty much one large metro area from NYC to VA. Closing it would jam up traffic from Richmond to NYC far worse than normal.
