...there were still crazy idiots out there surfing!

They seem to be a vast improvement over the sane idiots that I always meet. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/2thumbs.gif)

I have to find the box. It's buried in the garage (on or under the car project). I'll try to find them tonight. I need to just start a thread for who need what and place an order soon. I'm about out.

We got 12" here yesterday. Global what?

Well yeah. Global warming and climate change means more extreme weather all over the earth. Hotter summers, colder winters, less predictability.
Climate = the way a place is generally is (like Mexico is usually hot and dry, Antarctica is frozen and dry)
Weather = what's happening in the sky from day to day, like it's raining or sunny (or snowing an unusual amount)

I'm glad someone gets it!

Or to put it another way, global warming is the shift in the average temperature.

Basically if it's not 70*, low humidity, and sunny you can blame it on global warming.

My wife and I chased a job to MN a few years back ... "heavy" snow one night left a foot or so on the ground. Next morning we're the only ones to show up at work ... everyone else called in saying they couldn't drive in these conditions ... I think they're still joking about it: "we had this heavy snowstorm and the next day the crazy Californians were the only ones to make it in!"

You mean to tell me that only a foot kept those crazy yoopers <(I've heard this term used to include MN residents as well as U.P./Wisconsin natives) off of the roads??!!

That's how it seemed ... of course there could have been an "excuse for a snow day" motivation going on that we didn't have figured out yet ... ;-)

I might have 6" here in southwestern NH. At this point in the year it's the least amount of snow I've had on the ground since I've lived here, and the fewest plows I've had to pay for. Strange year indeed, but it ain't over yet.
