Watching a pristine layer of snow, slowly melt away before the
cold air returns. All very sad.
Some of you in the SE have my commiserations :-)

Are you for real ?

The saddest sight in the world ? You must live a very sheltered
and shallow life.


Surely there are worse things than hyperbole in a posting to a weather
newsgroup? It's perfectly obvious that Will didn't intend it to be taken
literally.

Depressing that dickheads like you steal oxygen.


I'm not sure what a comment like that tells us about your own life.
