Traveling to Chicago?

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

I’m planning on traveling to Chicago and looking for areas to stay at. Does anybody know about Deerfield, Illinois? how long is it from like downtown Chicago and such. Also how is the transportation in Chicago? Is it anything like NYC. In NY most hotels have a bus route from New Jersey that will take you to the city, i’m wondering if its same in Chicago or do i have to drive with my own car to downtown? thanks

We travel to continents East and West to Travel by Air and Sea, how about North and South?

I was playing around on Google earth and came up with a big stumper of a question. We travel by Airplane and Ship to travel between continents from East to West or West to East. Why don’t we travel from North to South or South to North to get to the other side of the world? Why don’t airlines fly from Chicago, go over the North Pole and land in Moscow? Is it a matter of distance? If so could the aerospace community returning back to the idea of Nuclear Powered Airplanes be the solution?
