    Its past ridiculous. Move me from the camp that was amused at the situation to the camp that is concerned about folks. People die in weather like you folks are getting.

    I went and dug out my Walkman so that we could have a battery-powered radio. Original cassette Walkman, not the CD kind. Still works perfectly, too.
    Within minutes of posting this, the power came back on. Hopefully for good, but if this system is stalling like it is supposed to be, who knows what will end up happening.

    I guess I'm just used to acoustical management but anything that's set up to pick up soundwaves (including microphones and or pickups) can be fedback. All you have to do is get the source to "hear" itself.

    I can't believe we've got this much snow. Even OldFan hasn't seen this much snow when he was my age.
    Yeah, but he walked both ways up hill in it anyways.

    You never know, you can't really trust the statistics on accumulation nor the forecast ahead.

    You say 20 inches, I say an unproven prospect of 6.
