Steve, so I am assuming Marge isn't making it to Texas today?? Last time I was in Chicago it was like this. That was like in 1997/8?? anyway.. I was living in Indiana and working in downtown Chicago in the Randall Bldg. I was at the train station in Indiana (lived in Indiana, worked in Chicago) at 4:30 for a 30 minute trip to work. It took 5 hours to get there after being stuck on the tracks several times. Then when I got to work, no one was there. I called my boss and he said go home. Of course the trains were no longer running. It took until 6pm that night before they could get one train out to go to Indiana. Then it ended up stuck on the tracks as well. I did not make it back to Indiana until 12:30am!! Then after scraping the snow off my car to drive home,.. found out it wasn't MY car after all. Had to scrape until I found the right car. Then I found out I couldn't get on the freeway cause there were tons of abandoned cars on it.. had to BACK down an icy on ramp and try to find my way home. Even tho I was only 2 miles from the train station there were so many blocked off roads it took me another 2 hours getting home! THAT is when I decided that I was coming back to California!! do NOT miss that at all!
