Used to have a job so bad, my only happiness in life was buying a lotto ticket once a week. Never won, but did get a better job. Played Keno last week, tripled the $5 I put in the machine. That is rich to me, went out, had a few beers, played keno all night, still came home with more money than I left with.

It may sound all fancy, but lost the "rustic" ring to it.

Most people traveling here by air are not locals, and many are from other countries and visiting Yellowstone Park, so it only makes sense that the airport be named something to make it easier for the people using it to understand.

Once again, I've gotten involved with working on something and forgotten a pan of lunch on the stove... the worst acrid food smoke smell so far, burnt broccoli and brussels sprouts. Aaargh, and had to let a lot of cold air in the house to get the smoke out.

Personally I think that's silly. Airlines don't call airports by their local name, so out of towners never know it's called "Gallatin Field" in the first place. To them it's BZN, "the Bozeman airport", period. That it's actually at Belgrade, or was named Gallatin Field, is irrelevant. (As to whether the call letters match, what do they think about, oh, say, PDX??)

Seems to me this is a loss of local history in the name of grasping at the tourism straw (hoping to suck in people who will think the airport is AT Yellowstone Park), always a very bad thing to hang your economic future on.
