Welcome from Dalton, Georgia!!

I love suffixed routes when it comes to US Highways, but I really don't see the necessity for them in modern day when it comes to Interstate Highways. I've never had a problem with the two pairs of I-35W and I-35E (one in DFW, and one in Minneapolis/St. Paul), because they already existed and they had made themselves an impression in both metro areas - but I truly do not see the point for new suffixed interstate highways, and especially the I-69-W-C-E mess. I really don't see the necessity for all those different I-69s. I-69W should be I-6, and there should not be two different interstate corridors that go
all the way down to the south Texas population region that are parallel to eachother in somewhat close proximity (that is a waste of money IMHO) - there should be one I-69 that goes down there (probably to Brownsville), and there should be an I-269 or something that splits off just a little ways north of the population region, and that heads down to McAllen. The I-69 suffixes mess in south Texas seems truly useless to me, but that's just my opinion. Once again, I love suffixed US Highways, and I find
former and older suffixed Interstates a fascinating and perfectly-fine part of American Highway History, but I don't think suffixed Interstate Routes are the way to go in the modern age at all. That said, I do find much of the I-69 extension to be quite fascinating - especially the parts between Houston and Louisiana, and in southwestern Indiana (which is near your neck of the woods).
I also love both weather and roads, as do many road enthusiasts here. The Weather Channel probably makes up 50% of all time I spend watching TV (which typically really isn't even that much time to begin with - I spend the great majority of my time on the internet (including on this forum) and playing video games - and of course doing work for school and elsewhere when it is needed. Thunderstorms get me excited, I find tornadoes and hurricanes and the sort to be incredibly fascinating, and more.
I have Autism (Asperger's) as well, but most of my mental disability comes from debilitating psychological disorders such as Depression, OCD, and mild Schizophrenia, and lots of other anxiety disorders such as GAD, SAD, Arachnophobia, and more. With all of that, I may come off as quite..."off" at times to say the least.

You definitely are not alone, as many of us roadgeeks have Asperger's Syndrome, but we use the benefits of it (there are many downsides too, obviously) to our advantage, in utilizing our extreme love and passion for roads.
