Re: Northeast USA Blizzard of '06....Snovatron Time !

2006-02-13 by Bernie Kornowicz

Hi Jerry and All,

I just measured my knees and they're 21 inches from the ground. It 
was 3-4 inches/hour for a while. Bradley Intl. Airport was closed 
all day. Even the local McDonalds was closed, and they never close. 
I did pass by a Fujian Chinese takeout joint that was open though. 
They wouldn't close if a comet hit next door.

Today was a good day to stay indoors, watch a couple of movies 
("From Beyond" and "Fighter in the Wind" (story about Mas Oyama)).

Also a good day to catch up on some Tronning, Hammonding and 
synthesizing :)

Bernie
