the BScubed/Goofy award goes to...

David Dise, Director of Montgomery County MD's Department of General Services. 

Mr. Dise, who has previously received BScubed awards for Baseless Self Serving Statements such as "The SSTC will absolutely be safe" and "We don't do well with unusual projects" and "We focus on delivering a first-class product in all the projects that we construct", has come up with the goofiest Baseless Self Serving Statement of them all:

"This structure's already survived an earthquake."

• The yet-to-be-opened Silver Spring Transit Center hasn't seen its first car, much less its first fully loaded bus. Mr. Dise's latest Baseless Self Serving Statement is like declaring a new ship seaworthy before it leaves drydock.

• All but a miniscule number of structures have survived earthquakes in the eastern US.

Mr. Dise, how about waiting until "independent engineering and construction experts", who don't consider the SSTC to be "unusual", declare it safe, and fully loaded buses start rolling across its cracked and thinner-than-they're-supposed-to-be decks, before you declare the SSTC safe (albeit "unusual")?

Congratulations, Mr. Dise, for the goofiest Baseless Self Serving Statement ever.
