Looks like we're in for a bit of a storm over the next couple days in New England, eh? http://www.cnn.com/2001/WEATHER/03/03/weather.storm.02/index.html I've heard that up to 4 feet of show may fall in this one. Last big one we had was a few weeks ago - I got close to 2 feet of snow in a day and a half. That's kind of a lot. If your morbid curiosity gets the better of you, I'm in Portsmouth, NH (zip code 03801). You can check weather.com to see how badly pounded I'm getting. :) NB - I'll fricken drive to Austin if I have to. Nothing stops a Quattro with snow tires - nothing. bob -- bob davis bobd at members.evolt.org
