WOMAN SPOUTS BABY



This was a five minute graphical jobberooni, at least, once the names were worked out. This was the only "classic" spider map I could find that was even remotely good-looking. And that was before I got to it.

Uh, yeah, Downtown Crossing really IS "Wino Chant," no joke.

Ok, I'm dim, it was Chinatown. Still all too accurate.

As a lifelong subway junkie, I must give hearty approval. "A Rum Quai" has the best historical link: Aquarium station is the closest to Commercial Street on the North End, where the Great Molasses Flood happened in 1919. Ah, a rum-laden paltform for ships indeed. Thank you!

SLUGGER is historically appropriate, too. About a century ago, the Red Sox played at Huntington Avenue Grounds, where Northeastern University is today. And the Braves played at South End Grounds, just across the tracks from the Sox park.

I found this redone subway map (http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2006/02/02/underground5.pdf) more interesting. Though the lack of any kind of metal shows how biased and inaccurate it is.

In yesterday's Globe, the Starts&Stops column led off with a story about MBTA anagram maps -- but instead of pointing to yours, he linked to some other guy's.
