What is the Circle? I never noticed that until this summer when I was heading south for vaca. Wife and I were watching for a sign of some sort but must have missed it.

I dont understand how people commute by car here. Even when the traffic is good (parking gas ets.)

Metra/Pace/CTA/etc FTGDMFTDJHTDCW

Basically downtown. There are no signs per se. It's a reference to a general area where the University of Chicago/Circle Campus is.

Those are some crushing times! I have been stuck in similar conditions there. Miserable. Took me 2 hours to get to Irving Park from Circle. Seriously could have walked faster except that it was snowing all get out. That sucked.

Yeah, 465/65/70 is great compared to anywhere else. I moved from Indy 1 1/2 years ago to Cincinnati. 30 minutes to go 8 miles.

You should see it here when it snows. Holy Jesus Christ, the city shuts down if you get an inch of snow.

They're talking about an inch of snow at 2,000 foot level. I'm at 1,500. I haven't seen snow at my house in 20 years.

my average travel time is exactly 30 minutes to go from the west side of the airport to carmel. 27.8 miles in 30 minutes.
