    Great article. Fun to see familiar Chicago names in a NYTimes piece -- especially given the level of reverence. I particularly appreciated seeing Great Lakes spoken of so highly -- well, except that it will be even harder to get in there now.

    Thanks for posting that.

    I was thinking the same thing. I figure about six months should give the frenzy time to calm down. :)

    Great, just as the lines were starting to die out at Great Lake.

    eta: A million apologies.

    Funny how the New York guy can get the singular name "Great Lake" right, but... :lol:

    What's real funny, is the fact that I grew up with the Author. He's a local boy, born and bred, at least until about 7 years ago.
