I missed Duncan's stuff today due to a family gathering. I just read his most unfortunate and irresponsible dissing of O'Hare.I live in Milwaukee and recently took a trip from O'Hare. Just prior to takeoff there was a mechanical problem with the plane.
So, we unboarded and got on another plane. Total delay... about 45 minutes. Only in O'Hare could this be done. It's because it is so big an operation it can quickly handle these problems.
In just about any other airport I would be required to cancel or come back the next day to reach my destination.
It's the things that "don't" delay you at O'Hare that makes it the greatest and best air facility in the entire world. You never hear about those because... well they "don't" delay you.
So, with my Midwest civic pride and in the best Chicago tradition I don't know who he thinks he is, but I would suggest Duncan Black STFU about O'Hare and just stay out east and eat Philly steak crap and try to find peace getting wino blasted on his rooftop.
We don't need him in Chicago anyhow (with apologies to Lynyrd Skynard).
Thank you for your time.
