one more reason I respect you people that are hardy enough to live so close to the arctic circle...there is just no way i could handle a winter that long and harsh...yikes!...if we got that much white stuff down here these virginny idiots would keel over and die...they dont know how good we got it!...case in point, last month we got about an inch of snow overnight. In less than 24hrs following the police reported 300 accidents in the metro richmond area alone! that aint even the whole state!...they need to make it tougher to get a drivers license down here.
