If anyone has even been through the "neon tunnel" in chicago's O'Hare airport they can relate to this one: I was running to catch my flight home (Grand Rapids, MI), when I happened into the tunnel. As I rode the moving walkway everything seemed to sync perfectly: the bleepy computer generated music, the flashing of the neon lighting above my head, the drone of the crowd, and the synthetic "please watch you step" emitted by the walkway. I was completely amazed, and must have looked like an idiot gazing at the ceiling in total bliss. Once I was out of the tunnel, I cursed myself for not having a mini cassette recorder. It was too cool. -andrew -- /all major credit cards accepted/ / /http://www.calvin.edu/~asmith89/
