I've never used chains either, and I spent last winter driving up and down the mountains in the snow. I hear about them being required here on occasion, but I just looked up the chain law and apparently since I have the right tires and 4WD I won't need them.

well apparently it snowed saturday night in the mountains that surround vegas. not enough to stick to the ground in the valley though
seeing as i was uprooted from the icy tundra, otherwise known as upstate ny, 2 years ago to move out here and fry in the desert ... im quite partial to when it snows
cant wait til jan 3rd and ill be back in the tundra to ski and snowmobile with the family for 10 days !!

I'm a tard.... I didn't know that it snowed in Kentucky!

Last night the rain turned to snow, and stuck a little. The streets and parking lots were slushy. A few hours after when we came out of the movie theater, everything had melted and it was warmer. But yesterday was SUCH a CRAPPY day.

Today.... is awesomely beautiful. Bright sunny sky.

Use the Symbol font (it's a standard font on most Windows computers).

Use the following UBB code to force the use of Symbol (spaces added to keep the code from generating):

[ font=symbol ]ASF[ /font ] should appear as ASF

Symbol does not follow Greek character convention or alphabetical order on the keyboard - it was designed for mathematical formulas. Certain Greek characters are mapped to other English characters:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

I think the J key is the ancient Greek character Digamma, very rarely used and the V is lowecase Sigma used at the end of certain Greek words.

Hope this helps.

One of these days I will finally get to experience a white Holiday season.

I've never had a White Christmas.
