Well the majority it seems, when there's a chance of snow... sometimes the
spinning wheel of mayhem seems to propel everyone into a complete frenzy.
Can you believe166 forum members have voted that this years winter will be
as cold as 1963. This is out of 376, so a fair percentage. That in itself
only discredits the forum in my opinion. There have been other polls where
votes have tended towards the ridiculous.

I had simply ignored that thread in its entirety.

If you ask my honest opinion, winter 2003/4 will be colder and wetter than
summer 2003.

And I wouldn't mind betting that summer 2004 is warmer than winter 2003/4.

And while on betting matters - and this is terribly non-PC - I have a
geriatric 19 year old cat that can't have much longer to go. The non-PC bet
in this house is who will go first, the cat or the Pope?
