EDIT - And I know this is true b/c I my friends in Chicago said they wouldn't want to work there, and same goes for their companies.

Seriously? Do you not understand English or just completely fail to read what I wrote. How does saying that "people are chill again" equate to calling anyone who suggests that Sears might be still having problems with leasing due to irrational scared employees delusional?
I know some people are scarred of working in a tall building, but I also know many more who don't really give a shit. Anyone who is still afraid of a 9-11 style attack is paranoid or doesn't spend enough time around "terrorism targets". When you spend enough time in a financial district like that around Sears, you really stop thinking about it, everything there is a target, but I garuntee you its the last thing businessmen are thinking about right now.
Also, remember corporations are not human beings, they make decisions primarily off reason, not emotion, they will do whats most efficient and if one firm doesn't, another will come along and take the opportunity. So if there is good, cheep space in the Sears, it will be filled, the problem is that its not "good" its only "ok". Its definitely no higher than Class B space...
