ah. yes. then you would be mighty aware of what we have affectionately (not) dubbed "The Fredneck." hehe.

I considered calling it "Fredneck", but wasn't sure if anyone would get the reference. The term probably no longer applies -- too many yuppie types from Montgomery County moving up the I-270 corridor and displacing the rednecks. (I prefer the rednecks, mostly). Though I imagine that they're still around mostly on the far side of the city.

ibm, as in, in the big buildings right off 270? right by NIST and stuff?

There's several IBM buildings which fit that description, but yes. Between 270 and 355 just north of Montgomery Village Avenue. Large but low (2 story) buildings. If the site is still operating, it's Lockheed-Martin now.
