Holidays and new year : Part 2

Some buggers , 4 precisely, came down here on the new year weekend. Kannan from St Louis, Binoy and Sandeep from Greensboro and Sundaram from Washington DC landed here on 29th Dec. And what a landing it was! Sundaram was the first to land. I asked him to wait for the other guys and come with them. It is a long and expensive journey from the airport and binoy was renting a car anyways. But that adventurous spirit in Sundar overtook his brains and he started from there in a shuttle. That took 3 hours for a 40 mins journey.. The shuttle took him on a "Houston Darshan" in the night.
Next to land were the Syngenta Duo, Binoy and Sandeep. Their flight was about an hour late due to bad weather. Binoy was waiting and waiting for the "Mexican" at the airport in a hope that he will land in another half an hour.. but the "Mexican" did not land that night. Finally at 11.30 Binoy took his rental car with a faithful GPS and started for my house. reached safely in around an hour..
Kannan was missing! He was suppossed to land around 1/2 an hour after Binoy. His flight was delayed.. But... for how long.. minutes passed into hours and we were still waiting for kannan to land in Houston... The whole night kannan did not turn up.. What happenned?
