Im jealous that you come to the southern US and show all these other graticules love. The one airport in the world that you have to fly through... Atlanta Airport and you never once come to Geohash in the easiest graticule in the world. What's up? Something we said? --NWoodruff 14:29, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
- I don't think I've flown through Atlanta yet. Usually I go via Toronto. -- Rhonda 03:02, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- I've never been through Atlanta either, that I recall. I've flown out of Charlotte and Birmingham. And do you have a space shuttle? -Robyn 05:56, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- A space shuttle? I think they have a few used ones up at Cape Kennedy that they aren't going to be flying again any time soon. You might pick up a real bargain... -- Million zillion 06:25, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- Maybe things have changed since we now have a security theater. I've only flown once since 2001. I used to fly all the time for a job at least once a week in the late 1990's. Back then to save money, even though I live in Atlanta, I would drive to Charlotte or Birmingham to save $200 or more even though it would have a connecting flight back in Atlanta. Since Atlanta airport is the largest and or busiest in the world now, I though for sure you would have to stop in Atlanta. Maybe airlines don't do that anymore. I don't dare fly anymore. If it is less than a days drive by car, I make them rent me a car now. --NWoodruff 12:25, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- FWIW, I used to fly in and out of Atlanta during my college years (Go Jackets!), but I don't think I've had a connecting flight through there since then. There are plenty of alternatives for connections, and both FLL and MIA are big enough to provide direct flights over much of N. America. -- Million zillion 21:48, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
Love "open and does not also sell bait" as a restaurant criterion. -Robyn 17:58, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- To be fair, neither of us actually voiced that criterion at the time. I just took it as given for the write-up. (Never let a a little thing like "the facts" get in the way of a good story, I always say.) -- Million zillion 21:48, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
