Odd that you reflect my own language from the past then Joe. You know
full well what my "colours" are (in your opinion) and you take every
opportunity to pleasure yourself by telling the newsgroup what your
views are and you always have. Again, I'm fine with that, but please
don't try to be sanctimonious, saying that you've suddenly had a
revelation on the road to Dawlish. *))
I defend everyone's rights to their views, indeed I have fought all my
life for that right, and defending that right for others has cost me
dear at times, but I'll also defend what I feel to be right. Melting
snow is really not the saddest sight in the world. It was just a silly
thing to say - in my honest opinion, of course.

I regret allowing myself become embroiled in this bickering and
helping destroy yet another thread on the newsgroup.
My own very recent bereavement has shown me the value of friendship
and the very positive aspect of my own mother's life in seeing how
people mourned her passing. If I could only make a fraction of that
positive impact or influence I'd be happy. I realise I've let myself
down and probably her memory too right now and I apologise to her
memory and to the group. I thought your interjection and your apparent
censorship of Will's use of language and sentiment an extreme reaction
to something very innocent.
Your reaction was also a silly thing to say - in my honest opinion, of
course. So was mine.

Spare this effeminate junk for the soap operas,this guy Will can stand
before students,as a qualified meteorologist,and with a straight face
teach them that the temperature does Not go up and down daily due to
the rotation of the Earth and that I lived to see him do it in this
weather forum and without objection may be among the sadder things in
life.
The loss of a loved one brings out a strong sense of what matters,you
quickly forget that the loss of an astronomical heritage is just as
strong with some individuals and the very fact that a person here
could question the cause and effect between rotation and daily
temperature fluctuations reflects on all of you and that is the only
fact worth considering.
Still believe in 1465 rotations in 1461 days as the majority of
scientists do even with Feb 29th approaching then say goodbye to
weather,climate and just about everything else worthwhile.It is not
just that people are wrong,they just don't get it.
