What does LaGuardia handle? It seems like JFK handles a lot of the domestic traffic, and Newark the international.

Newark is mostly domestic traffic with some international. Newark International traffic is probably equivalent to Philadelphia's. Major carrier is Continential.
LaGuardia is fully domestic. Major carrier includes US Air. JFK is everything. It is an essential international gateway to the US like Heathrow is to London and DeGaulle is to Paris. JFK is one of two airports permitted to accept the Concorde.
BTW, who was LaGaurdia? He was as legendary a mayor as Koch was in the 70s and Giuliani is today. I believe I have just names NYC's three greatest mayors in history - with LaGuardia probably being the best.
