Any reason for a junket X...

"Officials did not know how much the trip would cost, but a search of travel websites found that airfare and lodging in London for five days could be about $2,000 per person."

Two grand for five days in London, including airfare, staying with the Salvation Army or what?

Ha ha multiply that exponencially and you will be much closer.

But seriously, I would xpect the mayor flying business, that's 3000+, a decent London hotel 300 a night, food and transportation another 300, adding up to 6000+ in total?

I would expect CotA to charter a G5 for the Mayor et al, and then allow the fireman and the cop to come along for free.

It's all about quality, not quantity.

Speaking of which, when is this place supposed to be completed?

[xpensive]

Eh, when nomex is accepted as an edible substance by the USDA perhaps?

4 apexes, nice probably will be taken as 2 though, 2nd and last perhaps.

Looking at it, I'd expect 1st and 2nd actually.

Charter flights, yeah right, Cota just wants the taxpayers to pick up the bill for the VIP arrivals and their private jets.

MrE won't like this, imagine if he has to wait in line with the riffraff?
