With apologies to Alfred, Lord Tennyson, the Metro failed again yesterday. This time it was a computer glitch, according to the authorities. Leonel Carrasco, deputy director of the Transport Reorganization Office (OPRET) said that the computer problem was solved after a brief interruption of service on the Metro 1 line. Services came to a standstill from the first station (Mama Tingo) in Villa Mella as far as Station 11, Professor Juan Bosch on the corner of 27 Febrero and Maximo Gomez.
