Hello All, What was all that crap about Global Warming anyway? The East, 
Northern New England, and the south are getting a bit of frost bite, and 
out here in Northern Utah it was 62 Degree's, sun shine. Rained this 
morning enough to dirty up the windshield, and of course I am next to a 
Gravel pit and they are in the crushing mode at the moment, dust 
everywhere. And I heard on the news yesterday that the Ski Area's in 
California had to cancel Ski and Snow Board competition because of no 
snow. Go figure......Joel   KB0FPT
