Re: Winter is still here
From: Graywolf [EMAIL PROTECTED] Seems like winter is still here. There is 12 of snow on my truck and it is still falling. That is after 3 weeks of Chinook like weather. I have a doctor's appointment. I hope they will be there. We had the ubiquitous 1/2inch of snow and everything grinds to a halt syndrome last Monday. Foolishly, I went into town (I was on a course and not at my normal place of wrok) by bus rather than leave my bike to the tender mercies of some of the scum that inhabit our inner cities. Took just under three hours to cover about 7miles. Still beat the lecturer. If it had not been highway (!) I would have got off and walked. Would have been safe to anyway as the fastest the traffic was managing was sub-walking speed but I am sure the driver would have argued. Funniest sight: car in the opposite lane with its front wheels against the slope of a traffic calming hump. Every time the driver started to move off, the wheels just went round and round with no forward progression. The driver's answer being, of course, to press harder on the accelerator. Maybe I _was_ better off on the bus. Hope you make it, Tom, and I also hope they are there for you. mike - Email sent from www.ntlworld.com virus-checked by McAfee visit www.ntlworld.com/security for more information

Re: Winter is still here
Sure they do, but I think they're headquartered in Atlanta, and they used up all their remote budgets on the last couple of blizzards and last years Hurricanes.

Re: Winter is still here
Expecting our weekly 6-10 of snow today and Tuesday. Maybe i can finish off the roll of Tmax in the camera.g Drive slow Tom.:-) We're just starting our seemingly weekly foot of snow snowstorm. The only bright spot is that it was supposed to be in full swing and heavy by 9pm and it was just starting so hopefully the meteorologists will be wrong again. Butch
