As a former colleague of Adeela's, I can say that she is more than deserving of your kudos. She was always - and obviously continues to be - an intelligent and conscientious public servant. And a very nice person. While we're handing out kudos, here's one for Kathy Zalewski, the Business Manager, who is moving on from D65. They were lucky to have her.
1. 100% agree with you about Adeela. As an occasional FOIA requester from D65 and other governmental bodies, she is hands-down the most helpful I have ever dealt with.
2. I was wondering about your riff on flooded basements. I grew up in North Evanston and having a flooded basement after a rainfall similar to those we had this week was a regular occurrence. After they completed the Deep Tunnel, that was no longer the case. I wonder the extent to which that has helped mitigate some of the soil issues.

On point #2 I think you just created an assignment for intern :)
