Frosty> Anybody remember what that stupid groundhog saw?

Well, OUR Groundhog had an overcast and shadowless Day.  Today, the
sun is shining brightly at 4:40 PM and the thermometer on the north
side of the house reads just a tad under 40F.

So when you're done with your High, why'ncha see if some them folks
down in East Texas can use it.  We don't need it here in the
Maritimes. :-)

Lessee, how to keep this OnTopic?  Well, today the mounds of snow
melted off my big air hammer so if the rest of the week is even
vaguely similar, maybe I can get back to Plan C for powering it:
contrive a coupling:u-joint:telescoping-shaft:u-joint:coupling
affair to connect it to a Ford F-150.  The truck is already hacked to
have a 1-1/2" shaft on babbitt bearing sticking out the back and can
be driven around (slowly) by putting the front axle hubs in.
