And then extremists would get what they want. Extremists even burned down the Reichstag so as to gain power. Because extremists hate or must subvert Congress, Parliament, Diet, Reichstag, or Knesset.
Problem is not Congress. Problem is many moderates who do not vote. And do not even bother to learn / listen to the news. By doing so, therefore all but vote extremists into Congress. Also contributing is gerrymandering. Gerrymandering means more power to wacko extremist liberals and conservatives to the detriment of moderates. So people blame an institution called Congress rather than ill informed voters who subvert Congress. So let's burn down Congress. It worked so well in 1930s Germany. |

That lake effect snow is amazing. Slideshow here.
Some neighborhoods near Buffalo got 4 inches, while others got 5 feet! You can see how it just hits some places. Not sure why some of the water is warm enough to generate the snow clouds while some isn't. |

Auntiedigr in Buffalo, well, NE of Buffalo, says they got nothing, like an inch or two.
Twenty minutes south? Five feet. In 24 hrs.

The joys of island life. Coal scuttles and log basket filled. Fire laid, stove set to go. Enough groceries in to last til the weekend (ferries cancelled for the rest of today). Plenty of candles, battery-powered Christmas lights, fully-charged music-playback system ...
I may be out of touch for a while ...

Sounds like you're prepared, guess you've done this drill before.

They've cancelled tomorrow's trains as well ...
This is what the railway line looked like in January in a similar storm:

It's nice to get the tracks washed every once in a while.

Miles per hour? Guess they haven't converted the anemometer yet.
And, no, an anemometer does not measure how much of an emo you are. Or aren't.

We do miles for big measurements and metres and centimetres for small ones. :/
