A series of ice storms hit Fort Hood, Texas in December '96. It was bad even by Michigan standards. Add in a lot of drivers trying to get home who were used to driving on roads completely clear of ice/snow/slush.... I remember it taking somewhere between fifteen minutes and half an hour to creep up the ramp of an overpass -- and we all had to deliberately run our cars onto the shoulder, because the road itself was too slick for our tires to take the slope. That night -- and the next again -- the storms sealed my car doors under a quarter-inch layer of ice.
I'll bet there's a really hair-raising story behind that 2 km in 2 hours, too.-----
Gentlemen, it has long been my conviction that all citizens should provide services for which their talents best suit them in support of those who have been called to duty. In the case of politicians such as yourselves, that would be target practice.

Big Brother is watching you. And damn, you are so bloody BORING.
