I've been watching this as well, and it does that that whole Deep Blue v Kasparov feel. It really has been very interesting.

It was confused because neither of those airports are "in" Chicago.

I forget about Midway, but O'Hare is. The land was acquired by the City of Chicago and is connected to the city by a land corridor the width of the highway to the airport - but it is entirely Chicago. Rosemont is just kind of along the way there. I have the impression Midway may have the same sort of deal.

It's because they are associated with the city. IIRC (and please correct me here, its been 15 years since I've been there) it's kinda like Heathrow, I don't beleive it was actually inside London, but it's still London's airport.

EDIT: Just checked, it says greater London.... but is that still London?

No. Nothing about London is great.

I enjoyed my time in London; thought it was a nice city.
