First, NO ONE calls it Chicagoland except losers from the suburbs who want to think of themselves as living in the city.
Second, something seems wrong with this thread because there are only 5 comments now but there's another link for the same article but with many more comments (http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/21/city-of-chicago-sued-for-illegally-ticketing-in-car-yappers/#comments). In any case, in that thread someone posted the actual law - it was a Chicago ordinance to ban talking on a phone in your car, but that ordinance is ONLY valid per State law *IF* the City posts signs. The city didn't post signs yet. So the ordinance is not yet valid.
