Y'all know nothing of truly disgusting weather. At International Falls, Minnesota, on the Canadian border in the heart of the heart of North America, the annual temperature range is about -25 C to +25 C, with the records (not in the same year) being -51 and +46. Average precipitation days per year is only 132, certainly far from rain-forest conditions, but still involving plenty of rain (660 mm per year) and snow (1524 mm per year). International Falls is distinctly noticeable on the U.S. weather map as usually being at the center of the most brightly colored spot. -- John Cowan <jcowan@...> http://www.ccil.org/~cowan "One time I called in to the central system and started working on a big thick 'sed' and 'awk' heavy duty data bashing script.
