    I have no idea what the Oklahoma Hotel & Lodging Association may think but this is from the Oklahoman's article on Friday about this.

    Re: May 2024 - General Weather Discussion

    That comment by Morgan was made after you made your comment. This was his 6:15PM forecast and note that he said 20 to 30 percent chance of rain and no mention of severe weather on Monday.

    Re: May 2024 - General Weather Discussion

    I'm not sure what hype you're seeing. Mike Morgan is on predicting about 20 to 30 percent chance of rain on Monday with nothing severe.

    Re: April 2024 - General Weather Discussion

    I assume you understand that the current Artesian Hotel was built in 2010 and was designed to resemble the original Artesian which was destroyed by fire in 1962. It was not a renovation of an...

    Re: Boardwalk at Bricktown / Dream Hotel

    You are just trying to have the last word as always. The comparison about how the project would fit is totally accurate compared to how many objected to the Eiffel Tower. I was only responding to...

    That's not what the person I was responding to was concerned about. Go back and look at what he said about needing to have a "balanced" skyline in OKC. He said nothing about the ability of the...

    Re: Boardwalk at Bricktown / Dream Hotel

    Once again, you completely missed the point. I never said the projects were similar at all. I said how they were regarded by many people were the same. You are just reaching for a reason to...

    Re: Boardwalk at Bricktown / Dream Hotel

    Come on Blue, I stand by the reasoning of my comparison. The comparison is based on the relationship of the projects to the rest of the city and how they fit in. They are quite similar in how they...

    That comparison does work because there was a lot opposition and derision to the Eiffel Tower when it was constructed, no matter why it was constructed.. And I don't know what it matters to this...

    Re: Boardwalk at Bricktown / Dream Hotel

    That sounds a lot like the opposition to building the Eiffel Tower in Paris when it was constructed. Paris hardly has a balanced skyline.

    I also don't want to derail this thread, but we grew field corn on our family farm when I was growing up. I spent hours there with a hoe chopping weeds.

    No, the chart shows that Las Vegas and Kansas City grew by less in number of people also. That makes me wonder about accuracy.

    The DFW explosion will start spilling over into southern Oklahoma during the next 20 years. That's already happening to some extent.

    There is no doubt about the quality here and I'm glad they are doing well. It just feels very cold to me form the pictures. I suppose each can be finished out according to what the buyer desires.

    They are furthering the possibility of offering international flights anyway. This has been planned since the last airport expansion.
