I would seldom post what I am about to, but to borrow a line from, I think our friend Jeff from the defunct forum.........a good punishment would be "two in the chest, and one in the head."
I was amoung a group of people that attended a lunch time meeting last year to discuss the proposed beltline. It was mostly informational at that time. We were given a map with several proposed routes. The favored one at that time, as I recall, would have gone north-south, running just west of Illini Skateland area and connecting to I-74 with a new interchange. I do not quite recall why that was the favored route now.
Thanks for the pics! I had heard that there were tornados in the area. The vermilionweather site is my favorite for weather. I love that the local map covers a large area, so that you can get a good idea of what is in the area.
