Situations like that are unimaginable over here... Yes, I guess they would be, be thankful that the isthmus of Panama exists or the Gulf stream current would probably not keep Europe or the Northern part of North America warm, both areas would return to Ice age conditions fairly quick...

Eric totally knows what a potato ricer is!!! When he was looking for a post doc position he interviewed at Los Alamos. He wanted to bring me back a souvenir of the area and he thought a nice, tasteful piece of turquoise jewelry would be appropriate. After wandering in and out of a few shops in the nearest town, Eric came to the conclusion that there is no such thing as a "nice tasteful piece of turquoise jewelry". So he wandered into a cooking store and bought me a potato ricer. I use it quite often. It has served me well over the years. |

A couple of "winter in the UK" pictures - But, not an atypical UK winter I must say. It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

The nearest town that registers would probably be Santa Fe. There certainly is such a thing a s nice tasteful peice of turquoise jewelry. There is also some horribly gaudy stuff. It really depends on who the artist is that designed the piece. The best (in my opinion) is delicate silver with inlay stones showing a traditional design. The best place to buy if you are in Santa Fe is in front of the palace of the Governers. At that spot, you are dealing directly with the artist or his family. BOINC WIKI |

More like Greenland, snow that doesn't melt, becomes ice, ice then gets more snow, that becomes more ice, soon enough the beginnings of a glacier or an ice sheet... Sounds like you have 2 seasons there, Winter and the 4th of July. |

Two things in the winter I never left home without years ago, 2 bags of chicken grit (80 lbs each) in the trunk for weight and the grit helps getting you out of a hole and a blanket. No cell phones then folks. |
