[Vision2020] Now for something completely different: Snow Tires

[hayman@moscow.com]

>From a studded, AWD Subaru (THE unofficial vehicle of the PNW) 
driver/user:

We have experienced leniency of late within the regions of winter. But "10 - 
11 years?" I recall seven years ago quite the pasting of snow footage and 
cold temps-- ~3 feet at the base of Moscow Mountain with correlative 
temps of - 30 F on my front porch with an accurate Taylor thermometer.

And I must quibble with "nasty" in terms of driving conditions. 1/2 inch of 
black ice, white ice, or whatever flavor one prefers can indeed constitute 
nasty driving conditions, and can happen on any given morning or 
evening.

Finally, some of us travel outside of North Idaho during winter conditions 
for whatever legal reason within the bounds of the Homeland Security Act.

SOS (Save our studs),

Warren Hayman
