I'm reviewing the photos now, but had to chime in here - when I was a
child, my folks took me to the museums almost every weekend. Whether it was
the MSI, the Field Museum, the Shedd Aquarium, Adler Planetarium, or
Brookfield Zoo, they were constantly taking me places to learn stuff.
And bite your tongue. No native Chicagoan refers to that building as the
"Willis Tower". I has always been, and will always be, the Sears Tower.
Just like we refuse to call Marshall Fields "Macy's".
