As I am, presumably, "one of the usual geeks" referred to by an
administrator on TWO I would just say the following:-
I enjoy reading your discussions from time to time. I like the enthusiasm
you all show for the weather. I find them often funny and the model
discussions are usually right up to the minute. I might not agree with some
of the science but probably couldn't do much better myself. I haven't joined
because I find the style and wit on here more to my taste. But I don't look
down or bear any grudge against TWO members and my only concerns are that
the belief in the FI models will bring snow will only lead to
disappointment. I know the feeling - as one who was 13 in 1963! But one
day...........
