I'll post in here, since we're starting over.

My questions:

Does anyone know if there's oxygen in Chicago? I'm worried about breathing and I'm not sure if they have oxygen there or not.

Also, is English the primary language spoken in Chicago?

 

[Moser]

Take public transportation if you can. I'm taking the South Shore Line from NW Indiana...4 dollar ticket. Free parking at the train stations.

Yes, we will be right off the lake too. Very nice city Chicago is. There should be oxygen in the air lol. The steel mills to the southeast won't bother you.

Gary, Indiana

If it's sunny, does anyone know what SPF of sunscreen I should wear? Anyone?

Gary, Indiana

My father was born and raised there. I grew up next door in Merrillville. A lot of history up here in Northern Indiana....John Dillinger is one example.

If it's sunny, does anyone know what SPF of sunscreen I should wear? Anyone?

At least 50. They say 30 is the minimum. Sunscreen can bite hard in Chicago during the late summer....

 

[No spoken words]

I've driven by Gary a few times on my way out to Indianapolis or Kentucky.

It's absolute shit now. The city died during the 60's and 70s. It used to be one of the biggest boom towns in America. It had over 200,000 people at its peak....a lot of people back in the day. But global competition got the best of Gary. The steel mills lost a lot of revenue. The city government lost revenue. The middle class basically moved out to surrounding suburbs.

You can see the stadium the Rail Cats play in from the highway, which I like.

I'm not sure, but this is really worrying me.

How do you think I feel? I still don't know which translation book I should get. Canadian - ??

 

[RickFly]

We are from Cincinnati , Saturday to the wifes grandfathers in Warsaw Indiana , then Sunday morning to Chicago.

It might rain. Try asking an umbrella street vendor how to get to Soldier Field from the train station.

 

[Moser]

Yes, English is definitely the primary language. Don't worry.

I also want to emphasize if you take the CTA buses...make sure you bring the exact change and know where you are going. There are maps and details online. Don't take cabs unless you can afford getting ripped off.

I'm going to see if there's an app for that.

Yes, English is definitely the primary language. Don't worry.

Do the umbrella vendors speak english also, do you know?

 

[kafrun]

Yes, English is definitely the primary language. Don't worry.

Eh?

Yeah, but the rain will short your iphone out, so, you're app is apt to phail.

In other words, you're stuck in a third world city with no defense against the rain, the possibility of public transportation shutting down around 11pm and a plague like infestation of bed bugs. Enjoy the shows.

 

[ramblin rose]

There are too many questions and not enough time. I'm not going anymore.
