Would that be so bad?  Wouldn't it be nice to have a shorter drive to
the beach?  If Hartsfield were suddenly beachfront property they could
take off over the ocean without annoying folks trying to sleep.  :-)

I'll make mention of the reference I saw to the possibility of creating 
a caldera type of scenario.  I don't remember where I saw it, but if it 
truly is possible, I'd suspect it would likely take out FL as well as a 
good part of Georgia.  If there is even a remote possibility, I'd nix 
the idea.  Wish I could find the reference now though.
