1881 1881: Sure, you were told, but just to make sure, you were notified that half the street lights were taken out at Chicago and Michigan for this accident, correct? Negative; we were not notified about that. Yeah, most of the lights — you can come from each direction and there's at least one light, but in the median they took out that entire one. So the signal that controls southbound and northbound traffic in the middle was completely taken out. 1881, 1881. Sorry to bother, but I just realized the exact same light is taken out on Michigan and Superior as well.
