Wild Blue Over Yonder

"Oh, that doesn't make it pretty anymore"
WLakean Lynn Hinkle, KC Star, Page 1, December 27

Don't know if you read the article "KCI's Trouble Waters". Seems to be part of a well orchestrated effort by aviation director Mark VanLoh to justify the building of a new airport terminal. The gist of the article cites the runoff of deicer into the pond by the Marriott and the hazard it poses.

The Star identifies Ms Hinkle as a "member of an airport committee in nearby Weatherby Lake". (Gee, when was the last time that committee met?) Not sure of the connection with our committee and the deicer situation, but then I might not see the dots.

The whole new airport discussion is a head scratcher. Previous comments have extolled the benefits for travelers and the need for a single terminal. Those of us who travel (100K this year for me, Bubba has way more) wonder what the heck could make KCI better...it seems just fine.

Tomorrow, details of how you can get the inside scoop on whole kit and kabodle.

Some people are consistent and support protecting the environment all the time not just when the threat is posed by bureaucratic democratic mismanaged entities and we have them around here

I vote for people who don’t ignore facts … even if they dont have an R in front of the name

I am not only concerned when it occurs in our backyard ie global warming exists and environmental regulations are good despite a lot of claims by disingenuous politicians owned by big business and special interest

Facts are stubborn
