@Kyle: Sounds good – I’ll send out a few tweets and messages when I’m there, probably around early June. Would be great to meet up!

Kyle: Unfortunately, I will not be going to Chicago this summer, as I am leaving soon for 4 months of backpacking through Mexico, Central and South America, and will be flying to NYC directly from Ecuador. But you might be able to connect with Anil. Leave a comment on his blog – he monitors it regularly.

@anil @barbera We’ll be in Chicago before TBEX as well, as it’s our home away from traveling. Message us, too, and we’ll meet up!

Oh Anil, you will love Chicago. Make sure to take one of the architectural tours from Chicago Architectural Foundation. The one on the boat that travels the Chicago River through downtown is great. And Rush Street at night, and Little Italy, and Greek Town. Go hungry, because Chicago also has some of the best food in the country. Walk the Magnfiicent Mile (but only if you”re NOT a shopper the stores there will lure you in). The Museum Campus is awesome – Field Museum especially – ad further south there’s the Museum of Science and Industry, which was the country’s first interactive museum and is a “not to be missed” attraction. The Art Institute (old and new wing) is one of the best art museums in the country, and the near north neighborhoods – Lincoln Park, Belmont – are fun. Nightlife too – Second City Comedy, House of Blues, Green Door for Poetry Slams. Wish I could join you!

I’m saving all of these Chicago posts. I’m going to try and make it there in June, I keep hearing wonderful things about the city.

On that note, it’s funny how many people in history are branded traitors for advocating peace, doesn’t seem to happen as often the other way around. I’m sure there are some but don’t recall many people for being outcast for proposing war on an outside nation.

What an impressive resume for anyone let alone a 19th century woman. More importantly, her legacy lives on.
