OT to Sparky: Yes, originally from the south side of Chicago, near Garfield Blvd (55th Street) and the area between Halsted (800 W.) and Ashland (1600 W). We lived for several years near DePaul University on Fullerton & Sheffield, and a few years off Addison Street about 2.5 miles west of Wrigley Field. All in all I probably lived in Chicago about 30 years. I don't know Lisle all that well, but I've been through there. I have a cousin who when to Illinois Benedictine which is in Lisle if I remember correctly. And I have a sister in Downers Grove near Ogden and Main, pretty close to Good Samaritan Hospital. You just got dumped with some snow didn't you? I think they got a foot in Chicago. Between the weather and the CTA cutbacks I am thankful every day that we no longer live in the Chicagoland area, or anywhere in Illinois for that matter.
