hell no scoresby, where's all the ice anyway?

What racism, Tu? Oh, right, tu is you in spanish too. Let me restate. Don't let the Oklahoma state line hit tu in the a$$ on the way out of the state, being that you hate it here so. Or is it that you are an invalid or incarcerated and can't leave?

and norman checks in with some good 'ol okie racism this morning! scum.

And built it it did. I remember when DFW was first placed way out in the middle of nowhere. There was a couple of hotels nearby and that was it. A few years later and there's no space for any new construction. Ross Perot's cargo airport (close to the Texas Motor Speedway) has also contributed to the enormous growth of the area north of Ft. Worth. For Tulsa to lose flights, OKC retain theirs and Lawton get more big name service is good for everyone except Tulsa. It seems Tulsa, once the crown jewel of Oklahoma cities, has allowed itself to be passed by by OKC as the hub of Oklahoma business and finance.

Tu, I welcome the sight of you leaving Oklahoma. Your departure will only raise the quality of those you leave behind. Please hit the road, Tu. Don't let the border hit you in the a$$ on the way out. Bye-bye.

news flash scums, there is no worse place than oklahoma

Folks, this is NOT good. Ask San Antonio how they feel after losing At&T headquarters last week to Dallas and learning that THE reason was the airport and lack of direct flights to enough markets.

Airports and their access to the rest of the world drive local economies. DFW is THE engine that built north Texas.

how does it take longer to fly if you live in Edmond or Norman? it may take longer to get to the airport, but it doesn't take longer to fly.

The concept of flying out of Oklahoma City or Tulsa to anywhere is a bit strange. It takes longer to fly today if you live very far from Will Rogers, such as Norman or Edmond. There more fuel efficient technologies, such as rail if it were funded properly, to aviation. Oklahoma City should convert Will Rogers into a high-speed rail station. Aviation should only be used for overseas or long distance travel where considerable time can be saved. Transportation is evolving. Cost is now becoming a serious competitor to convenience due to the increasing cost of fossil fuels.

+1 Mark!

If you don't appreciate what Oklahoma has to offer, move to Texas. Oklahoma will make it through the coming recession intact. How many states but a handful can you say that about? I love this state. I have lived many other places, but I have chosen to come back to Oklahoma, because in my opinion there is no better place to raise a family.

What I don't understand about people is that if they don't like where they live, then move. This is a free country and if you don't like where you are at then leave. I get tired of reading this trash about Oklahoma from people that don't appreciate where they are at. I don't know if these people are from Oklahoma or from outside, but if they are welcome to leave at anytime.

Personally I think it is a blessing. Now we don't have to pay for the expansion of airports in chicago new york san francisco and other cities for which we receive NO benefits. With decreased air travel we will nave to pay for fewer airtraffic controllers and fewer of the homeland security idiots. There wil not be any difference in the way business is done only now it will not entail personal travel that is added to the cost of every product.

I think it is a win win situation.

There are much worse places to live than Oklahoma, trust me! I love these people that don't get out of their house to take a look around them... then want to complain about nothing to do or see. Try living in a flat, dry, no trees or hills, no lakes... only fields and feed lots. The city has a lovely cow crap smell at night too.

Walk your rear out of here, tu.
