Visits nose-dive at Smithsonian air, space hall

"Overall Smithsonian attendance has fallen 27 percent since 2001, compared to the air and space museum’s decline of 46 percent in the same period." - MSNBC

Nice article, but they failed to mention the fact that it's impossible to drive in the DC area without getting a parking ticket. Heck, I even got one in the Silver Spring Metro garage for being a mere 12 minutes late. Our family used to visit the Smithsonian twice a year, but not anymore.
