Yep...found out that the airport is named after the older Bush, rather than the younger one, which is a bit better I suppose.
I guess the Americans are keener to name airports after people than British. (I can only think of Liverpool John Lennon Airport).
Once you've started naming airports after presidents, I expect they all want one.
Hopefully in the UK we'll stick to musicians.
"Birmingham Simon le Bon Airport" anyone?
"Bristol Massive Attack Airport"?Maybe not.

@ bonjonelson - Love "Jade Goody International"...would add a bit of class to Stansted, that would
@ arrghgarry - It was quite warm around lunch time, getting up to 25C (77F). Unseasonably hot, the lady in the bar told me last night. Drove down to Galveston and had a look at the sea. Had to pick up Japanese colleague from George Bush Aiport at 2pm, though. It's a work trip so meetings Monday/Tuesday then fly back Wednesday.

offlineMemberDoncaster airport is named Robin Hood.
I should know because Sathnam Sanghera once went on a diatribe about this in the FT, what with it being nowhere near Sherwood Forest, and I got a smartarse letter published in response saying that actually the Robin Hood legend began in Yorkshire.

@ arrghgarry - it's a rare thing indeed, this trip, and not indicative of my normal routine. If I go abroad for work at all, it's usually a 24 hour round trip to some industrial region of Germany, humming The Ride of the Valkyries as I glide into Frankfurt or Dresden...which brings us back to Wagner.
Is this a ticker yet, then, or what?

offlineMemberI think solar energy is good ,I used to take away the old systems from one company when they replaced them with Eco cute .
If the cells are cilica (sand )why cant they make them really cheap and bring down the price or Governments subsidize them .I am guessing the panels dont need maintainence ,where as the wind turbines do ..There is a company in japan that sells small wind turbines for roofs in Japan ,but they are just too inefficient
