All our Chicago-area friends OK?

Just read about the Chicago commuter train crash:

Teribble thing. Looks like one of the larger communter trains that goes in and out to the burbs. If anyone has more details, please let us know...

Guess I'm on top of the news - a guy from Florida tells me about this! Well, I'm present and accounted for. Sebastian and John aren't quite that southside. Doesn't sound too good, not trying to make light of the situation.

It was a Peoria-to-Chicago train. Apparently the second time in two years that a train derailed on those same tracks.

Who's our Peoria member? I thought we had one...
