and.
given the price increases in building materials over that time and the 1.3 billion is a bargain.
of course the politician pockets thing is for real as well.

good grief! i remember when it was houston "intercontinental" airport,with 3 round shaped terminals that were supposed to resemble flying saucers..it actually was kind of nice,but there were not the nuymber of international flights nor widebody aircraft iah has now...they renamed it geroge bush international about the same time they started tearing out the old round ternmainals,adding alternating "squarish ones" with more gates and longer concourses, and adding and upgrading a new bottom train and a "people mover"..of course it used to be just terminals a/b/ and c then they added teminal d as the internatiinal one, and expanded an remodeled adding restaurants and clubs and the like..oh for the "good old days" when there was only one parking garage and you could navigate the roads to and from and around the terminals!!
waste of $$$$
Apparently the statue doesn't look silly enough?
