Default If this doesn't verify it...

Yet another data point: The $100 Hamburger website keeps track of the
number of new airport restaurants that have opened and the number
closed. According to today's announcement, so far this year only 17
new airport restaurants have sprung up - all across the country --
while 143 have closed.

This is scary. Although we've seen "blips" of activity this year,
overall we're still seeing way, way less air traffic than in past
years. The fact that so many on-field restaurants have locked their
doors bodes ill for all of us.

Get out there and fly, ladies and gents. Our infrastructure is
dissolving beneath our wings...
