It is to weep.

It is so hard to view that picture. Meigs was *SO* cool, and such a
great place to land, I just want to cry when I see what King Daley
hath wrought.

Mary and I haven't been back toChicagosince his terrorist attack on
Meigs, and we never will return, so long as he's in office. I figure
ifChicagois populated by people so stupid that they "re-elect"
someone like Daley, they certainly don't deserve any of our money.

It's a small protest, sure, but I figure it's over $10K by now, given
the conferences and weekend getaways we've skipped. Multiply that
times 400K pilots...


The downtown streets were empty this summer, missing all those
aviators..NOT
Still hard to make a right turn on Mich. Ave. too many darn peds. &
the traffic aides
don't work weekends.
