Had a WIL/D who unsuccessfully stood by for ORD-STL tonight. Not sure whether that's how they went when the plane left without them.

One of my MR folks last weekend was on the u/g list as Gee W, so now I call him Gee Whiz (esp. since he was the only one of our group of 8 who didn't clear on the later 319 flights (so we had 7/8 of the F seats)).
