Friend Dennis Avery (“Unstoppable Global Warming–every 1500 years” author) once growled to me that just once, he’d love to see a rip-roaring alltime freeze-your-butt blizzard hit Washington D.C. to disabuse all our area’s global warming bigshots up close and personal of their snot-nosed notions. Well, after a long period of mild winters, DC may finally get hit along with the rest of the northern US this time around and affect warm esoteric thought. January 20 or there-abouts would be ideal.
