beef is on Washington Street. Heading north, if you have successfuly
navigated the 3-2 lane section, and have chosen the left lane through the
S-curve, you turn the last corner and WHAM! your lane ends in a pile of
snow.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<P class=EC_MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><FONT face=""
size=2><rant on> Is it just me or do the roads seem less plowed, less
de-iced and less sanded than usual for the conditions we've had
recently? I find too many intersections a dangerous sheet of ice right
now and wonder why. One observation is that when this accumulation
started, it seemed like it was a day late before I saw any plows and by then
the snow had compacted on the roads and the plows only removed the loose
stuff and left an ice sheet behind. I don't think it's been
too cold (except maybe one night) for deicer to work, so where have the
plows, sand and deicer been? </rant off></FONT></SPAN></P>
