Default Low fuel emergency in DFW

I prefer lead, except in cold weather when feathers are
warmer.

It was the controllers airport, he knew all the traffic [and
had probably practices an emergency turning the airport
around in their sim] and he decided what the best course of
action was, since he had the BIG PICTURE and the pilot was
stupid IMHO.
