(1) No
(2) It was yesterday. The ATL ground hold started while we were waiting for clearance @ JAX. We then went back to the gate, eventually arriving ATL 2 hours late. I was one of the few people on the plane not in a misconnect panic. I had time for a substantial snack and glass o' wine in the SC, and that was about it.
