Jerry Groot _________________________ That's called "Local Warming", Jerry. As for The Global variety; In Maine if you want to get the patrons of our ubiquitous local crossroads convenience stores laughing, mention "Global Warming", or Al Gore.

John Pels 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 05/31/07 Posts: 1130 Loc: Tomball, Texas	What y'all need to see is an ice storm in Houston Texas. Every once in a while it happens, and if you think the wack jobs in Michigan can't drive, you need to see Houstonians wailing along at 60 on the freeways, only to find that there is a 10 car pileup a half mile later, and cars strewn everywhere. I grew up in New Jersey during a time when it snowed fairly significantly. I've been in Texas now for 30 years and haven't missed the cold. NOW, there are the little details like hurricanes, trop storms and general flooding....tradeoffs I call them.

Most of our snow has melted though. We can actually see grass here and there!
