The snow load comes and goes. Looks like Seattle got walloped last week. Fine by me.\u00a0 We get that all the time in my kingdom. Winter isn&#8217;t winter without snow, ice, sleet, slop, slush, miserable cold, the occasional female squirrel looking for bird food to steal. If the squirrel is fat, it&#8217;s a female and she&#8217;s got several buns in the oven.<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t convince ecohippie idiots that passenger jet exhaust is mostly water vapor that instantly crystallizes when it leaves a warm, high-firing jet engine and hits a nearly subzero temperature outside that warm, cuddly engine. They thinks it&#8217;s all carbon. That&#8217;s the buzzword for them now: &#8220;carbon&#8221;. Not CO2. I hope some day they find their own planet, but in the meantime, there&#8217;s an island somewhere in the vicinity of Antarctica with a couple penguin colonies. They could move there&#8230; all of them. There, or Mars, as soon as there&#8217;s transportation there. And take the nutball politicos with them. That would make me happy.<\/p>\n<p>Being indoors because of bad weather is boring, but you know that if you keep busy, time passes quickly.\u00a0Instead of spending the time indoors, grumbling about the weather, rustle up your old stories of &#8220;There I was, surrounded by space aliens and a pile of brass, and the commlinks went down&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Go for it.
