It really takes you an hour 15 without traffic? Seems closer than that... I drive to Evanston, so I'm lucky enough to get off 94 before it even gets serious. It SO should not take as long as it does. But I agree that it's mostly the way people drive.

NORMALLY, even in traffic, an hour and a half (sans traffic, 1:15). Last snowstorm to hit in January, that drive took me FOUR HOURS, and I even took the BACK roads trying to avoid traffic. 88, dead stop, both ways. 355, dead stop, both ways. 294, dead stop, both ways. 290, you guessed it dead stop, both ways (that's normal even when it's NOT snowing!). >> To unsubscribe or change your preferences for the Creed-Discuss list, visit: http://www.winduplist.com/ls/discuss/form.asp
