Life and times are cyclical. In Atlanta now they're fighting over whether to change the name of the airport from Hartsfield(sp?) to naming it after the late Bro. Maynard M. Jackson. While this is laudable, particularly to those who recognize and want to honor all Bro. Jackson did to make Atlanta a thriving area, the Hartsfield people remember what their guy did.

From a political view, I also wonder if it's the best use of political capital to get it done, but that's just the deal-maker in me, I guess.

These proposed name changes are becoming more common. Look at Congress, they already named the D.C. airport after Reagan and now they want to put his likeness on the dime, replacing FDR.
