the DTW stones are gone.

I wonder if the person who made that decision had any idea that a great tradition has been needlessly ended. Thoughtless.
As has been posted in the new thread referenced in this post, it was hardly a "needless" or "thoughtless" move. This "tradition", while cool, was actually only known to a small handful of the millions of passengers that pass through the terminal ever year. The stones were old, and disappearing... if anything, this move was an INVESTMENT in keeping the terminal refreshed after 11 years.

I know it's disappointing for those of us who were into signing the stone... but, we were few. Time to move on.
