[QUOTE]Originally posted by zephyr: [QB] PullmanCo, your "frustration" is a good example of how the very same remark can cause totally different reactions at different times and in different contexts. Bad timing on my part. Speaking of the minor leagues, I wish I would have caught you at a better time. I would liked to have bantered a little T-Bone with you. I did catch an American Association game in St. Joseph (the Blacksnakes). I'm to the point where I enjoy minor league games as much or more than "The Bigs." Now about that increased travel time from Independence to KC (vs. vice versa). Mean to tell me it isn't a west wind thing in your area? I checked out the east end of the Kansas City to St. Louis run. Found the same phenomena. Kirwood to St. Loo takes 42 minutes, and vice versa takes 29 minutes. Is there a strong east wind that blows continuously in eastern Missouri? I spot-checked one more. CZ Naperville to Chicago takes 1 hr 33 minutes. CZ from Chicago whizzes into Naperville in 34 minutes. Again, a wind thing? Or local time zone changes I'm missing? Or are the engines just more rested and refreshed at the start of the trip, and therefore faster? Or is it...... [i]padding?[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
