LOL, without looking at the subject line, I thought I was seeing spam for a time-share rental or something... I guess I'm projecting, because I've been stuck here in friggin' Sparta, WI for two weeks and it's COLD!

Oh, you're just talking temperature... yeah, it's a bit chillier up in Minneapolis, but you probably get enough car exhaust out on the street to make up the difference! Here in Sparta there aren't enough cars. Well, back to Boston this weekend, hopefully... where we can enjoy nice big mounds of relatively warm snow, lol

Suffering through high 70's in LA - it's tough, believe, me! I don't know how I do it!

I'd rather be breathing cold air than smog... it's probably not as bad now as when I was growing up in Hollywood in the 60's and 70's, but man I do not miss being unable to inhale more than half a lungful at a time of whatever that dreck was I was breathing back then...

Well it's a balmy 85 today just outside Boca. I'm hoping to go to the conference in Boca later this month. Big Al is giving the keynote speech. It's going to be a very interesting few months.

Alright - anyone who's in a location that's above freezing gets an immediate ban - unless they send me a one-way ticket out of this blizzard. 3 below and still falling here in Maine. Brrrr.....

Not to rub it in, but here are annual average temps for The Northern Mariana Islands. We are in the 84/high - 76/low time of winter now! Attachment Deleted

BD, smog is such a 60's and 70's thing, so much better now, really. I remember what it was like in the 50's and 60's; you'd be outside playing an hour and a few minutes after you finished, it would hurt to take in even 1/3 of a breath. Most days are pretty darn clear, it's amazing how much difference there is, and that with many more cars now. No leaded fuel and no incinerators, and clamping down on industrial emissions have been three key reasons.
I liked that late action in MNKD today, let's keep it going!

Well, if nothing else, this frigid weather will be good for my GMCR stock!
