Ex-NTSB member to discuss Metro crash

Former National Transportation Safety Board member Carol J. Carmody will appear on the Baltimore Sun's Getting There blog to discuss Monday's fatal Washington Metro crash Wednesday at noon for a live chat.

The discussion with Carmody will last for 45 minutes, but could be extended if there is sufficient interest. Carmody, an appointee of President Bill Clinton, served on the board from 2000 to 2005.

Readers can join in here; questions can be submitted beginning at 7:45 a.m. Wednesday.
