I think the best part was the second video, where they were talking about the wind turbine, and how only a little power from a generator got it started, and wind kept it going (you had to power the wind turbine…), and also about all of the different energy solutions on tap for the future!

I was there too, although I was 2. I remember a few years afterwards in my preschool classes, my teacher needed some empty cans to melt crayons in, so she opened up some cans of “World’s Fair Air” to use since the cans were empty. World’s Fair AIR. I kinda wish I had a few of those now though, that’d be a cool memento.

That’s the joy of writing it in advance… I had 26 years to get this one together — I figured it had to be halfway decent.

Excellent post, especially for someone that has one foot in the grave.

Just for you:

From the East, your best bet appears to be to take 640 and come down 275. All exits from 275 will be intact throughout the construction and you’ll avoid the impending “one-lane-with-a-left-turn-traffic-light” hell on pavement that will be the Hall of Fame exit on Gamedays. I anticipate that most traffic from the east will attempt HoF because it appears to be a much more direct route.

From the West, things should actually be easier. Will all the through traffic taking 640, the remnants of 40 should have less traffic than normal to all UT exits.

From the South and North, no change.

So, if any Florida fans ask you for advice, be sure to send them along HoF.
