Omaha--rather SAC Air Force base--used to be an important military base.

They explained it this way on NPR--whether or not that helps:

Chertoff made it sound like that the amount allocated to NYC was inflated last year, which is reflected in this year's decrease. NYC was their first priority, so it received funds first. Other places increased because they had been low priority.

I am not Chertoff, however. I don't know if he made the right decision. I'm not looking to argue, but point out what you may or may not have heard yet.

Oh come on. You editors wouldn't know a work of genius when comes across your desk. Why, just last year I mailed you my 1456 page m.s. (Remember REMEMBRANCE OF THINGS LOST? Think that only brighter, flashier, more tea cups that reminds the narrator of things lost) called ZOMBIES 2: LOST IN SPACE.

Of course, you foolishly rejected ZOMBIES 1: WOKEN FROM THEIR GRAVES AND THEY DON'T HAVE THEIR HAPPY FACES ON THIS MORNING, which every one of my friends heartily recommended to you. Its genius was charting how free enterprise would one day beat the undead pinko commies in putting a man on the moon! You rejected that?!? When it wins every major, I bet you'll come begging for the next magnum opus!

(By the way, ZOMBIES 3: ALL IN A DAY'S WORK AT THE WAYSTATION is wending your way in its very own UPS truck.)
