re: #716 Honorary Yooper

Yeah, I saw and read those articles. Had to stifle a chuckle. Having driven through enough heavy snowfalls this year, and in years previous around Chicagoland and up north (Michigan’s Upper Peninsula), a foot of snow is still quite a bit. However, we usually get right back to work the next day almost as if nothing happened.

IIRC, this winter, we’ve already seen about 50 inches of snow locally, and NW Indiana will get hammered with up to 8 more inches of lake-effect snow tonight and tomorrow.

Global warming, indeed.

Indeed - and the Gorebull disciples are still on about how this is incontrovertible evidence!

Mind - I’m very happy with this cold and frosty winter: ground is frozen hard for at least an inch and a half - that means the slug and snail eggs will have been killed off! And if one lives in slugs’ paradise, that is really good news!
