Capitol City Illiteracy

(chuckle, true)

Living in Austin, Texas, is probably not unlike living in other state
capitols in the sense that about half of the businesses in town have
names that begin with "Capitol..." such as Capitol City Lightbulbs,
Capitol Yugo, etc.

I was looking up one such business in the phone book recently and had
trouble finding the phone number until I looked under "Capital..."  In
fact, I was amazed that about 150 of the "Capitol" businesses in
Austin have misspelled their first name.  Among them:


Capital of Texas Leasing  (what IS the capital of Texas?)
Capital Metro (the city public transportation organization)
Capital City Financial Services (pun intended?)
Capital Area Speech Language & Educational Services
Capital City Creative School
