The Perfect Disaster (Documentary)
Time - 20:00 - 21:00 (1 hour long)
When - Tuesday 5th September on five
Ice Storm.
Documentary series, combining dramatisations, special effects and
scientific testimony. A decade ago, an ice storm brought the city of
Montreal to its knees. But scientists now believe that there us far
worse to come.

Anyone watch the documentary on Five just now?

Interesting but uninspired commentary about the ice storms that hit
Montreal -apparently quite regularly. This effort played with the idea
of one that might last a little too long.


I would tend to think that Montreal gets more pure snow than ice. I live in
Kentucky and we get a lot of ice storms here. Typically, they follow a
pretty regular pattern. The NOAA issues a winter storm watch for snow
amounts of up to 6 inches but is almost always unsure of the exact storm
track or where the rain/snow line will be. It's difficult to ascertain that
in an area which averages winter high temperatures in the 40's in Dec, Jan
and Feb. What almost always happens is the rain snow line is right over the
Ohio River, leaving Louisville (where I live) with sleet and ice. A good
example is the Xmas storm of 2004, it occured two or three days before Xmas.
There was a winter storm warning for up to 16 inches of snow but I knew
better, the local forcasters predicted as much as 24 inches! It didn't
happen, what did happen was 3 inches of snow, followed by 3 inches of ice,
sleet (****) followed by 2 more inches of snow, making air and road travel
nasty bidness. Typically though, we don't even get any snow, just sleet and
ice, which sucks. I'd rather have the snow, much easier to deal with. On
one occasion though, in early Feb of 1998, we did receive a lot of snowfall,
25 inches to be exact. The interesting part was it never got below freezing
the whole time, even at night, the temp stayed at 32 or 33. The result was,
20 inches of snow on the ground (5 inches melted on impact) and roads that
hardly had any snow on them because of the warm temps. Still, it was a
record snow for this area. I moved here in 1997 and it's only gotten below
zero once. I'm from Minnesota so I've never gotten used to these mild, wet
and icy winters!

I can only guess your'e talking to yourself?

I think.

But not more deeply than a troll it would seem.

What I have to say I say, regardless of who wishes to get or not get
involved. That's why I use Google Groups. It is very good at following
the Christian mandate of not whispering things in secret but
broadcasting them from the rooftops.

As it happens what I am saying is pretty well right on the money and
goes across the grain of accepted science. The mere fact we live in a
democracy does not make me wrong. Look at the worlds great leaders at
the moment. Which one of them isn't a war criminal?

And they have all been chosen democratically, have they not?


How do you define "war criminal" ?


Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pott, Saddam, and that tall skinny (ugly) ******* who is
said to have recently died from a waterborne pathogen (we should be so
lucky). Unfortunately, deaths from Waterborne pathogens are rare unless an
individual refuses (or can't get) basic medical treatment.

If anyone has any solid proof of current leaders who are convicted war
criminals, I would like to hear it (Weather Dork)?? Dip****.

Several if not most US presidents have been war criminals and all have
committed crimes against humanity up to and including LBJ who gave in
to demands for equal rights for all in the US.

None of the above war criminals has ever been convicted of war crimes
in any trial I have heard about. But you of course know better than I,
so I await your proof.
