Then they can pay to go the the Wisconsin regional, and they're still $1000 better than they were with the old regional system.

Even so, how can it possibly be $4000 more to travel 6 hours to Kettering than 3 hours to Milwaukee? Gas is expensive these days, but I have trouble seeing them spending an extra 4K to drive an extra 3 hours.
