If Continental had a hub at DFW with nonstop flights I would always fly them, unfortunantely good things take time.

The demolition of the old ADS tower, while substantially delayed by the delayed opening of the new tower, is imminent. Wave "buh-bye" to it now, as it will be gone in a matter of weeks.
Funny thing, yesterday as I was flying out, the TWR controllers were asking aircraft for three-counts and such, as they were still getting accustomed to the new radios.

You could be the first, but I believe that the old tower will be giving way to a parking lot and, the contract for demolition having been let for several years now, the momentum might be a bit tough to stop.
