OK. We use different tires according to the season which is why "ordinary" can be a bit confusing for us.

People who act like it's summer and speed with their cars when winter comes.. they deserve to crash their cars.

Those who can't handle snow, ice and still take their car to slow everyone else down, they should be hit by those crashing speeders.

And it should all be done before or after i get on the road so that i can enjoy a nice quiet drive with all the other good drivers.

that's right. In fact, we should form a movement to beat the crap out of the bad drivers.

UK didnt grind to a halt, the claims of gridlock were from the usual gingoistic media. The one part of Devon which encountered a delay was due to two large lorries jackknifing on ice. The snarl up was cleared within an hour.

Are you implying that MOBIUS yet another time has turned the truth into something that suits his point of view and something that doesn't match what really happend ?

I'm guessing you've never walked to school with -40 windchill...

I guess your daddy never lifted a mountain like my daddy did.

Of course, we had it tough...
We used to get up in the middle of the night, eat a handfull of snow...

When i was a kid i had to walk 20 miles to school every day in 6 feet of snow and -50 weather, wearing nothing but rubber boots and my grand-daddy's long johns and it was uphill all the way... and coming back too.
And i'm not even talking about the wolfes, the polar bears and the english.

On a related note, France is on ALERT because of 5cm of snow

[Dauphin]

Its more than 5cm in many places...

And wow, look at the pics. And yet not a drop of snow in or around London!
