Any of you that are close to here need to go check it out.

Hate to tell you, but you appear to be the closest to it. 4 1/2 hours.

Actually, I'm the closest to it, at about an hour and ten minutes away. I've been through it a couple times, but never stopped to get out and poke around. Students from Southern Illinois University Carbondale did a big project on the town a few years ago, and can be found here:

Maybe one of these days when I'm free, I'll make an excursion and go check it out.
