Motto: "Our society's downfall will not be this war. The war IS our society. That which will get us will be the little things. Some humanoid race, some tossed cannon, the little things that no one looks out for. THAT is for what we must be vigilant."

These must be Chicago spots only. I was misled to think you had to visit all the locations where they filmed. :P :lol:
