Really cool video showing what the tower controllers do. One thing I noticed is that the one ground controller told the aircraft to "Hold short of Dixie" meaning taxi, but when you get to taxiway D, stop and wait. The interesting part of that is that "D" is "Delta" in the phonetic alphabet, but I am pretty sure they switched it to "Dixie" at ATL because it is a hub for Delta Airlines, and I am sure it would get confusing if they told someone "Hold short of Delta" when most of the airplanes taxiing around are Deltas.
