My hope is that the FAA, but more likely some congress critters
squeeze Chicago thouroughly to about a quart past empty as some have
shown an inclination. There is that possibility that Daily's
maneuvering will cost not only Chicago, but the state many, many
dollars...and then again they may get off scott free as he expects.
The airport may be dead, but I seriously think the issue is far from
being so.

Ahhhh! There 'may' be a break-through [not the trench variety!] at Meigs
and a compromise 'may' be reached with .... [ALL RISE!] Mayor Daley!

[A sudden call from the Daley faithful....] : "Der Führer, SIEG!"

What's that? I don't care for the guy...that's why! Or his ways. Or his
demeanor. Or his political machinations. Or his 'in your face' tantrums
when he wants his own way. The trenches at Meigs was/are a disgrace!

Anyway, word is that a compromise may be reached [see the editorial
piece by Bill Fedorko in 'Private Pilot' mag, September issue, page 4]
wherein the Illinois legislature is willing to give the
Führ...ehhhh....Daley II more say [read: power] in the 'O'Hare'
expansion project in return for another Meigs reprieve...and due repair
therein. But who knows..... . Stay tuned.
