[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It has nothing to do with disliking Reagan (although I do) and everything to do with the fact that I don't recognize the right of a Congress, in which I have no elected voting representative, to rename my city's airport and force my city to spend significant resources on changing metro signs etc . . . I particularly object because there's no history of the federal government doing this in any are in which the citizens do have voting rights. [/quote] If "your city" is Washington, DC, the airport isn't in the city -- it's in Virginia. And the federal government once completely controlled the airport until it ceded control to an intergovernmental body that includes the federal government, VA and DC. This has nothing whatsoever to do with DC voting rights. Being somewhat set in my ways, I still call it "Nationial" but "Reagan" doesn't bother me. It's a heckuva lot easier to say than BWI Thurgood Mouthful Airport.[/quote]
