firstly, thank you for calling me first rate!
did you see my previous post? we got caught BIG time last october, we just didn't bitch about it. look up winter storm "Atlas" we couldn't avoid it, but we made it through by hunkering down and surviving, when it cleared, we pulled ourselves up and started digging out.
I forget how the "civil war south" is it's own strange mysterious land that has mystical powers, like ice that just forms on roads. or no weather stations work locally.
I just hope we don't have to listen to whining about this one for the next 150 or so years too.
