Wisconsin is finally going to join the 21st Century/get off it’s ass and do something to help economic development.
Plans to expand 35 miles of I-94 from six lanes to eight between Milwaukee and Illinois moved closer to final approval Friday with a report that declared the project would comply with federal environmental laws.
Naturally, the ankle biters are opposed. Here’s one that’s especially moronic coming from, naturally, the ACLU.
[...]“They (those opposed to the expansion) also argued that the project would violate civil rights laws by pouring more money into road construction and depriving minorities and low-income residents of public transportation options.
“One can’t look at this without finding a pattern of discrimination against disfavored groups and communities in our society,” said Dennis Grzezinski, an attorney working with the ACLU.” [...]
Sigh.

A Great Song. In fact, I have my own stories about that in the old days at FL250.
I’m too lazy to type it out so YOU will have to come to Drinking Right on Tueday, April 8, 2008 to hear the story. Papa’s Social Club. 78th and Burleigh….MKE, WI.
I was tryin’ to find my way home
But all I heard was a drone
Bouncing off a satellite
Crushin’ the last lone American night
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
I was spinnin’ ’round a dead dial
Just another lost number in a file
Dancin’ down a dark hole
Just searchin’ for a world with some soul.
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?
Radio failures make old memories die hard.
