I know this was tounge-in-cheek, but there is one thing I'd like to
say.  While stations in New England are running Europe in -20 degree
weather and snow on a contest weekend, here on the Oregon coast it is
is usually about 50-60 degrees.  And that is not only on the contest
weekends, but the rest of the week as well.  Been great weather here
today and supposed to get to 70 degrees tomorrow and be sunny all day.
Think I'd rather have that.  73
