#6 This must've been the storm of all storms. Heard a guy in Nebraska this morning who's been holed up in a local shelter for a week or so. He's now moving to a local hotel. No continuous power in sight either...just generators.

Oh well, at least the diesel fumes will help global warming and thaw them out.

#7 This was the storm that hit the Denver area only a few days prior. We didn't get the massive drifts though.
Big thanks to our national guard!

Oh, God, no! It's well documented that where ever Gore goes, cold weather follows. He caused Australia's mid-summer snow, fer crissake!
