George Orwell was an amazing visionary. Just spent a few hours doing "correct speak" at the State Department getting a passport expanded. Although I will say, even the security guards there were polite and "human". Hanging at Atlanta airport now.. will do it again as I fade through security un-noticed. Although having a Sky Priority Pre-Check ticket allows me to use the pro-line. Basically same thing without strollers and frat kids, everyone doing their part to make it through the experience as smoothly as possible.

if you haven't found it yet, ATL has a neat african rock exhibit in the walkway by the first train station, between T & A (snicker) I believe. I always enjoy a couple of minutes wandering through it when I have to travel there.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
