Headed to Atlanta today. Any sights worth seeing? I already have the Coca Cola museum and Stone Mountain on my list.

The Aquarium is pretty awesome. Summit racing is in McDonough (about 30 miles south.) I'm not sure what else is going on now as I am still overseas. How long you going to be in town?

PM Atlanta Steve, after all the city is named after him. Never got to mosey around the city much the dozen times I've been there (always night). There is an underground night scene (clubs, bars, restaurants) Steve may be able to tell you how to find it. Baseball stadium might be worth a tour, I hear there's dog fighting at Vick's place...

I know that, Craig. Why do you keep bringing up the past?

Aquarium is cool, so is Fernbank. Coke museum is right next to the aquarium. Stone mountain is really just a park with a big rock in the middle. Grab a burger at the Vortex. Steer clear of the ghettos, there are plenty.
